Our motto, design a difference, is how we approach every project: with the belief that great design can create enduring, positive impact that goes far beyond the product itself.

We're currently looking for a Brand Designer with experience in motion design to join our team. Working across a range of projects, you'll combine creative thinking with exceptional craft to deliver work that's on brand, beautifully executed and built to make an impact. You'll bring curiosity, a keen eye for detail, and an awareness of culture and design trends, contributing ideas that help push our creative forward every day.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
