☕️ WE’RE HIRING — OPERATIONS MANAGER
☕
Something pretty exciting is happening at Roost Coffee House...
We’re opening our second site in Soham this November — and it’s going to be around 5x the size of our original coffee house, with around 60 covers and a brand-new breakfast, brunch & lunch menu alongside all the pastries, cakes, bakes and toasted sandwiches our customers love. 🥐🍰☕️
We’re looking for an Operations Manager to join us from mid-October and help us build this next chapter of Roost.
£35,000–£40,000
40 hours per week
Soham, Cambridgeshire
🚀 Second site + potential national expansion
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.

We’re looking for someone who is hands-on, organised, commercially minded and passionate about hospitality. Someone who loves people, cares about the details, has ideas and wants to build something rather than simply manage something.
Our new Soham coffee house is opening within Scampers Pets, part of the national Pets Corner group, and this new partnership could be the beginning of a much bigger journey for Roost.
So if you’re an experienced hospitality manager who wants to be part of something exciting from the beginning...
We’d love to hear from you.
