What difference will you make?
Our ability to provide our services free or accessibly is entirely reliant on funding. We cannot stress enough the importance of this role and the difference a good fundraising strategy and bid writing ability would have.
Our work makes a huge difference to people's lives, from entertaining families across the UK to doing outreach with minority groups and providing career development programs for young aspiring artists and those identified as NEET. None of it is possible without support so in (almost) the legendary words of Gerry Maguire - please "help us help them!"
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 are we looking for?
The ideal person will be bright, focused, and have a good understanding of what funding bodies are looking for.
- The ability to write clearly and concisely but also convincingly is imperative.
- Good organisation and punctuality because funding applications often come with deadlines.
- It would be great if the person had good social skills and an independent drive in order to seek out and build legacy relationships with individual givers as well as organisations but this is not as important as diligence and commitment.

We would love to find a highly literate and motivated person with interests in children, families, and/or theatre to help us explore funding opportunities, network with like-minded people, and write funding bids for our education, outreach, and creative programs.
- A minimum of 3 years experience in either bid writing or fundraising strategy is required.
- The ideal candidate will be able to work from home, our office, or a mixture of both, whichever is most convenient and will liaise with our Artistic Director on suitable funding targets as well as identify some independently.
