💰 £50k–£80k (plus bonus)
Agora Talent is partnering with a highly successful UK-based entrepreneur to hire a brilliant Chief of Staff to become their trusted right hand.
This is a rare opportunity to work incredibly closely with an established entrepreneur with interests spanning business, investments, events and special projects, offering exceptional exposure to an influential network and a huge variety of projects.
This isn’t a traditional, desk-based Chief of Staff role.
We’re looking for someone who genuinely enjoys being in the thick of things — attending meetings, meeting interesting people, keeping multiple priorities moving, assessing new opportunities and making sure ideas actually turn into action.
A significant part of the role will also involve events, and relationship management, helping bring together exceptional people and deliver high-profile gatherings.
What you'll be doing
Working closely with the Principal, you’ll:
- Act as a trusted sounding board and day-to-day right hand
- Attend key meetings, capture actions and drive follow-through
- Help manage and prioritise an extremely busy and constantly evolving agenda
- Filter incoming opportunities, introductions and requests
- Research businesses, people, sectors and new ideas
- Support the delivery of high-profile events and gatherings
- Help curate guest lists and coordinate speakers and attendees
- Build and nurture relationships across an exceptional network
- Prepare briefings, presentations and written materials
- Take new ideas and special projects from concept through to execution
- Work alongside wider support teams to ensure priorities keep moving
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.
