About the Role

This is a part-time role (28h per week), however, we are open to flexing hours down for the right person.

1 year fixed-term with a possibility of extension. We’re looking for a confident communicator and relationship-builder to help grow two flagship diversity projects in Welsh housing and governance. This role will focus on securing support, building partnerships and raising the profile of work that improves ethnic representation in leadership and employment.

The Business Development and Communications Manager plays a central role in the growth, sustainability and visibility of two major initiatives designed to increase ethnic minority representation in housing organisations and on boards. You’ll help secure the support, partnerships and communications needed to deliver meaningful, measurable change.

You will:

  • Secure new funding to expand opportunities and strengthen long-term sustainability
  • Build strategic partnerships across housing, public sector, community organisations and Welsh employers
  • Increase awareness so the projects are recognised and valued by partners and participants
  • Deliver compelling communications that showcase impact, lived experience and the value of diverse workforces and leadership.
  • Showcase the projects as essential, high-impact work that provides practical solutions for organisations across Welsh housing and governance.

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.
