The Role
We are looking for an experienced Food & Drink Retail Multi-Unit Service Manager to oversee day-to-day operations and service delivery across a number of busy food and drink retail units.
This is a hands-on, field-based role with responsibility for people, service, commercial performance, and operational standards across multiple locations. You will work closely with Store / Unit Managers and operational teams to ensure consistency, drive performance, and deliver an excellent customer experience.
The operation is fast-paced and commercially focused, with a strong emphasis on customer service, team performance, operational standards, and sales growth. We are looking for someone who enjoys being visible in the operation, developing people, and taking ownership across multiple units.
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.
