  • Maintain areas of the website, ensuring content is accurate, engaging, and aligned with brand standards.
  • Deliver email marketing campaigns, including segmentation and targeting using Dynamics CRM, and produce performance reports and recommendations to inform future activity.
  • Support the development and implementation of CRM, audience segmentation and customer journey strategies to enhance engagement, drive customer acquisition and donor opportunities.
  • Support the delivery of Customer Insight training across teams to ensure data is effectively used to inform marketing decisions.
  • Act as a brand champion across the organisation, supporting consistent and impactful brand representation in all communications.
  • Participate in ongoing brand development and profile-raising activities both internally and externally.
  • Create compelling, on-brand content and copy for both digital and print channels, supporting freelance designers and the wider marcomms team.
  • Work closely with internal teams to provide marketing support, including presentations, print orders, digital assets, and design work.
  • Liaise with external suppliers such as printers, designers, and advertisers to ensure timely and high-quality delivery of marketing materials.
  • Provide marketing support for sales and fundraising events, ensuring strong visibility and engagement.
  • Provide campaign insight, reporting and recommendations to improve engagement, conversion and retention.
  • Assist with general administrative tasks and other duties as directed by the Head of Marketing and Communications to ensure smooth team operations.

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.
