About The Role
An international, progressive art and design collective in London are looking to hire a Senior Project Manager to join their vibrant and friendly team. You will be working within a small team, reporting to the head of department managing a wide range of artist design projects.
This is a fantastic opportunity for an experienced PM who understands both the technical & creative sides of projects, who is looking to expand their career within a thriving business. Within this role, no two days will be the same; you will work closely with the project and wider teams, be the ‘go-to’ client liaison, manage a variety of projects and have the opportunity to travel for onsite visits. The ideal person for this role will have knowledge, understanding and passion for the design, architecture, and arts industries.
Our client is committed to fostering a creative and innovative environment, with epic events and a collaborative culture. They also offer an excellent benefits package, generous hybrid/flexible working, medical cover and much more!
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.
