Who we are
Volta Ventures is a face-to-face marketing company working in the telecoms sector. We run live sales events and in-store retail campaigns for major telecoms brands, growing their customer base through direct, personal engagement — real conversations with real customers, not ads on a screen.
We're based in Birmingham city centre — a short walk from New Street, Moor Street and Snow Hill, so we're an easy commute from right across the West Midlands. Our events and retail campaigns are expanding fast, and we're building the team to run them.
The role
This is a hands-on events and retail campaign role.
You'll start on the ground face to face at our live events and in-store retail campaigns, talking to customers directly and acquiring new business for our telecoms clients. From there you'll move into running campaigns: hiring and onboarding event staff, owning campaign targets, coaching new starters, and eventually leading teams across multiple sites.
Events and retail campaigns are the part of the business we're growing hardest right now, so there's real room to move — we promote from within, with every manager starting from the grassroots level.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What you'll be doing
- Representing major telecoms brands at live events and in-store retail campaigns
- Acquiring new customers through face-to-face conversation
- Recruiting, onboarding and training new event and retail staff as you progress
- Owning campaign targets and reporting on performance
- Coaching and developing team members on site
- Helping open new event and retail locations as we expand
What we're looking for
We care far more about attitude than experience. You'll do well here if you're:
- Competitive — you want a target and you want to beat it
- Organised — you can run several things at once without dropping any of them
- A strong communicator — comfortable starting a conversation with someone you've never met
- Solutions-oriented — you think on your feet when a day doesn't go to plan
- Ambitious about leading — you want to develop people, not just hit your own numbers
No degree or previous experience needed. Full training provided.
What you get
- Structured management development programme with a clear route from trainee to leading teams and running events and retail campaigns
- Base salary plus uncapped commission — a guaranteed foundation, with your earnings rising in line with what you deliver
- Monday to Friday, 8am–5pm, with extra hours available if you want to earn more
- International and domestic travel opportunities
- Networking events, team socials and Rising Stars recognition for top performers
