About the Role
Can you create campaigns that drive behaviour change to support critical University priorities? Do you have experience making planned and effective use of digital communications channels? Are you an excellent communicator who is confident supporting engagement with diverse audiences?

You will take the lead on campaigns, communications and engagement projects that promote and support the work of the Facilities Directorate to deliver a more environmentally and socially responsible University.
You will work closely with stakeholders both within the Sustainability Service and the wider University to understand their objectives and deliver meaningful and impactful communications and engagement campaigns to meet these.
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.
