Are you an events professional who thrives when the pressure's on?

We are working with a fab agency and are looking for someone who rolls their sleeves up, can manage a variety of projects and always goes that extra mile to deliver perfection …

The role will see you working with a mega client helping to deliver 5* attendee experiences at major UK sporting events and also supporting the wider agency delivering live events across the UK for other household names.

What you'll be doing:

  • Managing the full event lifecycle - from brief and concept through to delivery and post-event evaluation
  • Acting as the primary client contact on a key agency account
  • Developing detailed event plans, timelines, proposals, and all things operational
  • Taking full ownership of budgets and the commercials relating to your key account
  • Sourcing venues and negotiating supplier contracts
  • Managing delegate registration and logistics across multiple concurrent projects
  • Delivering on-site across the UK (and occasionally internationally)

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.
