About the Role
We’re looking for a Commercial Administrator to join our team.
This role is about more than keeping things organised, although you’ll be very good at that. You’ll be the behind-the-scenes support that helps our commercial department run smoothly, keeping information accurate, tasks on track and colleagues well supported. You’ll be someone who pays close attention to detail, stays calm when things get busy and enjoys being the go-to person for commercial queries from colleagues, members and suppliers. You’ll provide day-to-day administrative support to the Commercial team, as well as supporting the wider business when needed. In return, you’ll join a genuinely supportive team that celebrates the small wins, shares a passion for travel and knows how to have a laugh along the way.
Key responsibilities
Supplier and partnership support
You’ll be responsible for:
- Supporting the preparation and management of supplier agreements
- Assisting with the onboarding and implementation of new supplier partnerships
- Maintaining accurate supplier information, commercial details and documentation across internal systems
- Keeping relevant databases and spreadsheets accurate and up to date
- Supporting the delivery of supplier marketing campaigns and seasonal promotions
- Taking ownership of key administrative tasks relating to member and supplier set-up
- Assisting with quarterly and annual reporting
- Supporting PTS events, supplier roadshows and other business activities as required
- Responding to internal and external commercial queries in a helpful and professional manner
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.
