Newcastle upon Tyne City Centre

Full-Time | Monday–Friday | Onsite

Entry Level | Full Training & One-to-One Mentorship


What if your first step into business was with a company that's growing just as fast as you are? The best careers rarely begin with knowing everything. They begin with joining the right environment.

At Bespoke, we're building a business around ambitious people who are ready to work hard, challenge themselves, and grow alongside a company with big plans. We believe potential matters just as much as experience, which is why we're looking for individuals with the right mindset, professionalism, and determination to build a long-term career.

If you're someone who enjoys working with people, takes ownership, remains positive when facing challenges, and wants your effort to be recognised, we'd love to hear from you.

About Bespoke

Bespoke is a growing marketing company based in Newcastle upon Tyne city centre. As a startup, we're creating exciting opportunities for motivated individuals who want more than a routine job. We're building a team of people who value ambition, accountability, resilience, and continuous development.

The Role

As a Business Development Trainee, you'll gain practical experience in customer acquisition, relationship building, communication, and commercial development while working alongside experienced mentors.

You'll develop a strong understanding of how businesses grow, how lasting client relationships are built, and how effective communication drives commercial success.

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.
