Job Description
Are you a master of the lasso, a skilled horse whisperer, or a fearless trick rider with a flair for captivating audiences? Career.zycto, a leading talent connector for unique roles, is seeking a dynamic and highly experienced Rodeo Performer for exciting seasonal engagements across Enfield, London, and potentially wider Greater London. This isn’t your average gig; we’re looking for an exceptional talent to bring the thrill and spectacle of the rodeo to a variety of themed events, festivals, corporate gatherings, and private parties throughout the vibrant London events calendar.
As a Seasonal Rodeo Performer, you will be the magnetic centrepiece of our clients’ events, delivering high-energy, authentic performances that transport guests straight to the heart of the Wild West. This role demands not only exceptional physical ability, precise coordination, and advanced equestrian skills, but also a charismatic stage presence and the innate ability to engage and excite diverse audiences of all ages. You will be responsible for meticulously planning and executing thrilling demonstrations, which could include intricate precision rope tricks, daring barrel racing displays, captivating equestrian routines, and, where appropriate and controlled, safe animal handling demonstrations. Our utmost priority is safety, and you will be expected to ensure all aspects of your performances adhere to the highest industry standards for yourself, any animals under your care, and the enthusiastic audience members.
This truly unique opportunity allows you to showcase your artistry and profound passion for rodeo performance in often unexpected urban and semi-urban settings. You will adapt your compelling act to various venue requirements, whether it’s an expansive outdoor festival ground or a more intimate private function. Collaborating closely with event organizers, you will help design and implement bespoke performances that perfectly align with their vision, adding an unforgettable element of excitement, authenticity, and wonder to their events. Beyond the exhilarating physical performance, we highly value performers who are professional, reliable, and excellent communicators. The ability to work both independently with minimal supervision and cohesively as part of a larger event team is crucial. If you possess the undeniable talent and dream of bringing the spirited tradition of the rodeo to entirely new audiences, creating truly memorable experiences in the process, then this distinctive seasonal role offers an unparalleled platform for your craft and showmanship. We anticipate a season filled with exhilarating performances and appreciative crowds.
