The Opportunity
Want to change the way the world drinks? We’re looking for a commercially driven DTC Lead to own and accelerate the performance of our Direct-to-Consumer (DTC) channel across the Benelux and Nordics. This is a key growth driver for the business, responsible for defining the DTC commercial strategy and leading the AOP, promotional planning, forecasting, reporting, analytics and cross-market performance agenda across six DTC stores.
As part of the Northern Europe DTC hub in London, you will work closely with the UK&I DTC Lead to lift and shift proven best practices into the Benelux and Nordics, building a more consistent, scalable cluster model. You will partner closely with Marketing, who own the specialist activation capabilities (performance media, content, CRM and creative and site execution), briefing them at a commercial level so the channel is brought to life consistently across markets.
Responsibilities
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.
