About Tuckshop
Tuckshop is a brand incubator and investment platform helping FMCG Founders and Creators turn great ideas into thriving businesses. Founded by Jamie Laing and Ed Sweet Williams (the guys behind Candy Kittens), we back and support the next generation of FMCG entrepreneurs, through investment, brand-building expertise, and a team of people who've been through it themselves.
We want Tuckshop to be the place FMCG Founders come to for knowledge, support, and connection. And we need your help!
The role
We're looking for a Community & Social Manager to be the beating heart of the Tuckshop community, both online and in person. You'll own our social presence and, just as importantly, build and nurture a genuine network of founders & creators who see Tuckshop as their go-to community. No two days will be the same. One day you’ll be creating a report on the coolest food & drink trends in the UK right now, then you’ll be capturing BTS content from very cool meetings Tuckshop finds themselves in.
This is a role for someone who loves the FMCG start-up world and gets real energy from bringing people together.
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.

What you’re like
- You love FMCG start-ups: the founders, the hustle, the industry gossip, all of it
- You love building community and get a real kick out of connecting people
- You're a natural on social media, confident writing copy and comfortable behind (or in front of) the camera
- You're organised enough to run a WhatsApp group full of busy founders and an events calendar without dropping the ball
- You're warm, personable, and genuinely curious about other people's businesses
- You take initiative: you'll be given a clear mission and the freedom to make it your own
Why are we looking for this role?
Done well, this role turns Tuckshop into the fountain of knowledge for FMCG start-ups in the UK, the place founders think of first when they need advice, an introduction, or just to feel like they're not doing this alone. You'll be building that from the ground up, mainly through socials and events.
