If you're the person who saves TikToks "just in case", spots trends before everyone else, and can't help but think "we could do something really cool with that"... keep reading.
We're looking for a Social Media Executive to join Tonic on a six-month freelance contract, working with one of the UK's biggest retail brands. This isn't just a content scheduling role. You'll be out filming content, generating ideas, briefing editors, analysing performance and helping shape social that people actually want to watch.
You'll work alongside our Head of Social, strategists, creatives, and editors to create platform-first content that genuinely cuts through.
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.
