About ARQ

ARQ is one of the fastest-growing fintechs in the world. Our mission is to redefine how people interact with money across borders, building the infrastructure to move value seamlessly. We’re still early in our journey, which means every person who joins shapes the future of our product, culture, and growth. If you’re excited by big challenges, global impact, and the chance to grow fast with a world-class team, ARQ is the place to do it.

What You'll Be Doing

Special Projects Lead will work closely with the founders to drive the most critical initiatives for the company. Beyond scope of work and priorities, it is in the DNA of ARQ to do whatever it takes to win. In this role you will:

  • Work with the product and marketing teams to identify and launch new revenue streams or improve monetization of existing ones.
  • Partner with growth and product teams to design and execute activation and cross-sell programs that increase revenue per user and improve product adoption across the customer base.
  • Help execute local growth efforts - including community building, affiliate marketing, brand marketing and influencer marketing
  • Identify, execute and own initiatives that directly improve gross margin whether by growing revenue, reducing COGS, or cutting operating costs.
  • Negotiate with vendors and partners to improve commercial terms.
  • Track and report on the P&L impact of active projects, holding teams accountable to targets.

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.
