Institute of Art and Ideas (IAI) Opportunity
This is a remarkable opportunity to contribute to the growth of a rapidly expanding and unique organisation, the Institute of Art and Ideas (IAI).
Described by The Guardian as “the return to big thinking” and by Total Politics as “Europe’s answer to TED,” the Institute of Art and Ideas (IAI) is home to IAI.tv, a leading global educational platform delivering high‑quality video lectures, debates, and courses from the world’s foremost thinkers, scientists, artists, and policymakers. With an audience of hundreds of millions worldwide, the IAI is redefining how bold ideas are shared and taught across borders. Alongside its digital platform, the IAI also curates HowTheLightGetsIn, the world’s largest philosophy and music festival, bringing its mission of accessible thought and dialogue to live audiences year‑round.
Role Overview
Access to IAI.tv is provided via subscription to individual learners as well as to universities, schools, and organisations worldwide. As demand for our platform continues to expand internationally, we are seeking a commercially minded, ambitious individual to join our team. This is a multifaceted role that bridges the gap between commercial growth and brand strategy. You will be responsible for driving revenue through partnerships with educational institutions and universities, and will have the opportunity to contribute to defining the identity and direction of the brand. You will also manage and nurture existing partnerships, ensuring ongoing engagement and collaboration.
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.
