Company Description
PLAYER is a football recruitment community and marketplace connecting players, clubs, and agents.
Co-founded by legendary footballer Patrice Evra, PLAYER focuses on creating transparent pathways and opportunities within the professional game. We leverage our digital channels, including Instagram and YouTube, to share content, engage and grow our community, and showcase our talent.
Role Description
As a Media or Commercial Intern at PLAYER, you will chose one of two paths in which you'll be trained up and get exposure to the football industry:
Media
Focused on the growth of our channels, namely Instagram, TikTok and X on short form and YouTube on long form.
We're offering a 3-month content internship programme for people chasing a career in football media. You'd get a look inside the business of an ex-Man Utd captain and Champions League winner, access to that network, and real published work.
In the short term, this is about getting proper football industry exposure and strengthening your portfolio with genuine experience.
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.
