The Royal British Legion is looking for an experienced and analytical Senior Acquisition Manager to lead its mass fundraising acquisition activity and drive sustainable growth across multiple channels.

This is a senior role at the heart of RBL’s acquisition strategy, responsible for bringing new supporters into the organisation and creating the foundations for long-term engagement and income. You will lead acquisition across digital, TV, face-to-face and wider campaign activity, ensuring channels work together to deliver a consistent supporter experience. Crucially, you will ensure acquisition is designed as the first stage of an ongoing supporter journey, with clear connections into Welcome, Retention and Growth and a shared focus on building lasting relationships with supporters.

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.
