Vilgain Makes High-Quality Food
Vilgain makes high-quality food - clean, functional ingredients, no shortcuts, no filler additives. We're 700+ people across Prague, Brno, and London, already selling in 12+ markets across Europe, the UK, the US, and beyond. We're on a mission to change how people think about food, and we're growing fast to do it - expanding internationally and building a company where people have a real say in what we make and how we make it, not just a seat at the table.
Your Mission 🎯
Everything we say about our products, from packaging to a single Instagram post, has to be accurate and legally compliant, and it still has to sell. Today, compliance checks happen case by case, without a shared library of approved claims or clear guidelines for the teams who write content. You'll own this: you'll make sure every claim we publish is correct and well supported, and give marketing and product the tools to get it right from the start.
What Will You Do?
- Review and approve all customer-facing content for compliance with EU and Czech food law, including the web and e-shop, product descriptions, packaging, online and offline advertising, social media, emailing, banners, and PR
- Make sure every nutrition and health claim is authorized, correctly worded, and meets its conditions of use, with no medicinal or misleading claims
- Build and maintain an internal library of approved claims and compliance guidelines for the marketing team
- Support NPD with formulations, functional ingredient combinations, ingredient suitability, and claim strategy
- Co-create and fact-check articles and educational materials, making sure they are backed by verified scientific sources
- Help develop internal tools such as nutritional rating and product development criteria
- Train internal teams, including customer care and retail, on nutrition and compliant communication
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.
