About Us
There’s a reason HUNTER is recognized as a PRWeek Best Place To Work and has been named PRovoke “Consumer Agency of the Year” not once, but twice: At HUNTER, we EARN IT — consumer attention, the trust and loyalty of clients, and the dedication of our staff, currently 350+ strong and counting.
Overview
HUNTER: London is searching for an Account Executive (AE). This role is meant for a strong communicator, natural multitasker, creative thinker and organized person who has their finger on the pulse of current affairs, industry trends, and cultural moments, using that knowledge to inform smart client counsel and media opportunities.
Responsibilities
Account Executives carry out much of the day-to-day execution and reporting, often supporting Senior Account Executives and Account Managers in delivering strategic, KPI-driven campaigns and press offices. An ideal candidate brings existing media relationships and has a clear understanding of the media landscape, experience in influencer marketing with talent/agent relationships, and a clear understanding of the social media landscape.
Qualifications
The AE should be able to follow a Critical Path Schedule, negotiate supplier costs within a defined OOP budget, and maintain accurate budget trackers. They will often be called upon to contribute to new business research and pitch preparations.
Not only are Account Executives excellent writers, with a keen eye for detail, but they are social media know-it-alls both in terms of platforms as well as influencers.
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.
