About Punt
Punt is the social game for sports fans.
Fans make Punts on football and cricket matches, earn Fanpoints, climb leaderboards, compete with the wider fan community and build their Fan Status.
We're starting with football and cricket, with ambitions to expand across all major sports as we grow.
The Role
We're looking for a football-obsessed, entrepreneurial person to take ownership of Punt's organic social growth.
Your initial focus will be building a large football audience on TikTok and Instagram and turning that audience into Punt users.
This isn't traditional social media management. We want someone who can figure out what works, create content people actually want to watch and make our accounts grow.
What You'll Do
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.

Why Punt?
We believe sport should be about the fans, not gambling.
Punt is building a free-to-play social game where fans can put their opinions to the test, compete with the wider community and make every match more interactive — without putting money at stake.
We're starting with football and cricket, but our ambition is to build the social game for fans across every major sport.
You'll be joining at the beginning, with the chance to build the brand, grow a huge audience and help shape how the next generation of sports fans engage with sport.
If you're football-obsessed and believe you can build a large social audience from scratch, we'd love to hear from you.
