Contract: 6-month Fixed-Term Contract
Answer Engine Optimisation is changing the way brands are discovered and this is a rare opportunity to take ownership of it from the inside.
Weâre working with a well-established, high-profile financial services business that is looking for an AEO Specialist to take responsibility for the quality, governance and evolution of its content as the search landscape shifts towards AI.
This is not a traditional content-writing role. Itâs an opportunity for someone with strong editorial judgement, technical understanding and regulatory awareness to set the standard, challenge what doesnât meet it, and help shape how the business performs across AI-powered search.
What you'll be doing
Youâll own and continuously develop the organisationâs AEO Content Standard, ensuring content consistently meets a high bar before reaching Compliance. Your responsibilities will include:
- Quality-assuring service pages, FAQs, case studies and news content
- Reviewing statistics, sources, quotes, risk warnings and regulatory wording
- Ensuring Article and BreadcrumbList JSON-LD/schema markup is implemented correctly
- Personally editing high-profile and higher-risk content
- Leading the AEO retrofit of an existing case study library
- Prioritising, managing and measuring content improvement programmes
- Acting as the internal point of expertise for AEO and content standards
- Working closely with Marketing, Publishing, Technical and Compliance teams
- Challenging content, including AI-generated copy, where it falls short of the required standard
Reasons to use Rodeo
Iâm in my final year doing Economics and I donât know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer â it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) donât need a masters. Letâs look at the ones youâd 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 â that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
