Director of Football

Reporting directly to the Chairman, this role will be responsible for enshrining the DNA of the club.

You will be a forward-thinking individual with exceptional analytical skills combined with a keen eye for detail. You will be required to write and implement a long-term strategy that maps out the club’s plans to attract, develop, and nurture the very best talent available.

With an excellent Academy already in place, first-class facilities worthy of a Championship Club, the foundations are already in place to ensure success and mitigate failure.

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.
