Job Description
Account Executive : communications agency, pharmaceutical
As our Account Executive, you'll join an established account handling team and receive comprehensive training to help you understand how creative pharmaceutical campaigns move from an initial client brief through the agency and ultimately into the market.
Reporting to an experienced Account Manager, you'll support client meetings and projects from day one, working alongside Account Managers, Account Directors, Designers, Creatives, and Copywriters.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Initially, the emphasis will be on learning, observing, and getting the detail right. As your confidence and knowledge develop, we'll encourage you to take greater responsibility, contribute ideas, and become increasingly involved in client discussions, creative projects, and new business pitches.
Key Responsibilities
As Our Account Executive, You Will
- Attend client meetings from day one, initially supporting with meeting minutes, actions, and project follow-up before developing greater client responsibility.
- Coordinate projects between our clients and internal creative teams, including designers, copywriters, and account handlers.
- Maintain project timelines, Gantt charts, status reports, and contact reports, ensuring actions and deadlines stay on track.
- Help turn client requirements into clear creative briefs, keeping internal teams updated as projects progress.
- Support project proposals, estimates, purchase orders, and budget reconciliation.
- Assist with pharmaceutical approval processes, including uploading materials to platforms such as Veeva and coordinating client feedback and amendments.
- Develop your knowledge of clients' brands, therapy areas, clinical data, and competitors.
- Gain exposure to pitches and new business opportunities, with the opportunity to contribute your own ideas as your experience develops.
- Build strong relationships across the agency and with clients while developing your commercial and pharmaceutical knowledge.

Person Specification
We are not looking for previous agency experience specifically (although we wouldn't say no).
We would particularly like to speak to you if you have the following:
- A science-based degree / background and a genuine interest in pharmaceuticals and healthcare.
- Have gained some commercial experience, perhaps through a placement year, internship, part-time role, or your first graduate position.
Above all, we're looking for someone with the right attitude. We can teach you how our agency and the pharmaceutical advertising industry work, but you'll need to bring enthusiasm, initiative, and a real willingness to learn.
The Company
We are an independent, employee-owned creative communications agency based in the heart of Windsor, specialising in advertising and communications for the healthcare and pharmaceutical industry.
We believe strongly in developing our people internally.
