Meet Soapbox
We’re Soapbox – we help every UK venture-backed startup share their funding news or launch, for free, on channels built specifically for a VC and founder audience.
We’re not chasing splashy scoops; we give every company the chance to put out a formal, third-party record of their round. No round is too small, no sector too niche – think the full-fat BusinessWire for venture. Our mantra for founders: if you do nothing else, do Soapbox.
We’ve launched in the UK with thousands of platform views and millions of impressions – but are now expanding to build Europe’s public platform of record for venture – a direct conduit that plugs founder news straight into our channels and the best new media outlets.
The role
We’re hiring a Socials Manager to bring the spotlight and credibility of “insider tech Twitter” to every startup – not just the usual suspects. We scout and surface the cool stuff from the bottom up – from every funding round to the hackathon winners no one’s covering yet.
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.
