Company Description

Role Description
We’re hiring. Part-Time Growth & Operations Assistant.
Northern Goose is looking for someone who enjoys finding opportunities, keeping things organised, and helping a creative business grow.
We’re a strategic content agency based in Newcastle, working with professional sports clubs, charities, brands and membership organisations across the UK.
This isn’t a typical VA role.
I’m looking for someone who can become my right hand. Someone who enjoys research, spotting opportunities, keeping projects moving, and helping generate new business.
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.
