About Sharp
Seventeen years ago, we decided the industry had it backwards. Agencies guess. Consultancies overthink. We built something in between: a brand consultancy that works with the rigour of strategy, delivers with the energy of an agency, and solves unsolvable challenges using Sharp Co-Create® — a platform we’ve spent nearly two decades building and proving for global and local brands.
Sharp is privately owned by three partners who built this business on the belief that work should be a force for good, for our clients and for the people who do it. Our values: Courage, Ownership, Curiosity, Kindness aren’t a poster on the wall. They’re how we hire, how we work, and how we hold each other to account. It’s why everyone gets a paid Volunteer Day: time back to put something into the causes that matter to us and AI Training: ensuring we’re leading clients through the new world. Our standards are high, and we don’t apologise for that.
Who You Are
You’re not interested in just filling a blank page with words. You want to write things that actually stick. You have an instinct for what works, a sharp eye for detail, and an obsession with the small nuances that turn decent copy into something unforgettable.
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

You embody our Be the Sunshine motto by bringing a dose of joy and a creative spark to work every day.
If that’s you, keep reading.
