Are you a senior conference producer ready for more ownership and strategic responsibility?

This leading events business is looking for a portfolio manager to take the lead on a high performing portfolio, giving you the opportunity to shape event strategy, influence commercial growth and make a genuine impact on the direction of the business.

The company

You'll be joining an established events organisation with an excellent reputation for delivering high-quality conferences. This is a role with real autonomy, where you'll be trusted to make decisions, develop new ideas and take ownership of a portfolio's long-term success. It's an excellent opportunity for an ambitious senior producer looking to step into a border, more commercially focused position.

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.
