Development Manager

We are looking for a Development Manager to join our busy team. Our Development team raises 25% of the income needed each year and it's an exciting time as we enter into a new round of NPO funding and launch our Capital campaign.

This role focuses on Individual Giving alongside some corporate partnership stewardship and event planning. It would suit someone with Major Donor and Capital experience but we're open to hearing from anyone with Individual Giving experience and a passion for theatre fundraising who is keen to learn and develop.

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.
