Salary: £30,000 + Overtime
Hours: Monday-Friday | 37.5 hours per week

Love football? Like working with your hands? Want a genuinely different job?

We're looking for practical, enthusiastic people to join a specialist operations team delivering cutting-edge branding activations at some of the UK's biggest sporting venues.

This isn't your typical technician role. One day you'll be assembling and testing innovative robotic equipment, the next you'll be pitch-side at Premier League stadiums helping deliver large-scale branding before matchday.

You'll receive full training, learn how the technology works, and have a clear pathway to becoming a Crew Leader within the 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.
