Project Manager - Embedded with a Global Events Agency (Leeds based)
Salary: £33,000 - £38,000
Fancy being the trusted right-hand for one of the most exclusive event programmes going?
We're recruiting a Project Manager to sit inside a well-established experiential agency, working on a single high-profile account: ultra-exclusive executive retreats for next-gen C-suite leaders. Think small, intimate, high-trust gatherings (around 12 guests) in locations like California, Dublin and Geneva, luxury, but never flashy.
Worth flagging upfront: the end client sits in the betting & gaming sector, so this one's for candidates who are comfortable with that space.
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.
