Junior Freelance Sound Engineer (Monthly Open Mic)

We’re looking for a junior freelance sound engineer to run the sound for our monthly open mic night.

It’s a relaxed, friendly gig and would be ideal for someone at university, recently graduated, or with around 1 year of relevant experience or training who wants to get more live sound experience.

The gig:

  • Once a month
  • Runs approximately 6:30pm until 11:30pm
  • Mostly solo artists and duos
  • Mostly acoustic/electro-acoustic acts, with some performers bringing their own amps
  • Run the live sound for the evening
  • £50 per night

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.
