THEATRE PROGRAMME ACCOUNT MANAGER
37 hours per week
We have a vacancy to join our account management team as a Programme Manager, based in our Rugby office.
WHAT MAKES A SUCCESSFUL PROGRAMME MANAGER?
Our Programme Managers are exceptional organisers, facilitators, and project managers. They are great listeners and relationship builders. They are on top of the work they are doing today, whilst always keeping an eye on next week, next month, and next year. They keep up to date with the theatre and print world, remaining alert to new commercial opportunities for the organisation. They work as a team, proactively supporting each other.
Acting as the conduit between the business and a wide arts customer base, the Programme Manager’s main objective is to facilitate the publication of theatre programmes – from receiving an initial brief, gathering and organising content, proofing, and receiving amendments right through to sign-off and beyond. This is a deadline-driven role where customer service, time management, print knowledge, and attention to detail are key.
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.
