Job Description
Right now, we’re looking for an Account Manager with a passion for stand-out creative and delivering through-the-line integrated campaigns.
Who we are.
We are McCann Central, the UK’s largest integrated agency. Over 500 individuals working together to help brands play a meaningful role in people’s lives.
We are also part of McCann Worldgroup, a global agency network that delivers culture-shaping work for some of the world’s biggest brands.
And to add to the (literal) wheelbarrow full of awards we’ve got including Euro Effies most effective global agency, Cannes Network of the Year, Campaign’s European Integrated Agency of the Year, not to mention McCann Central’s haul of awards in recent years at Cannes Lions, Clios, One Show, D&AD, LIAs, Golden Drum & Creative Circle Awards. So creativity really is at the forefront of everything we do.
We’re a team of passionate creatives, strategists and marketers from a wide mix of backgrounds. But there’s a lot that unites us – like caring deeply about everything we make. And though our skillsets are wide and our process knowledge is deep, we are all still learning every day.
What we're looking for.
Right now, we are looking for a talented Account Manager to join our team. As a key member of our client services team, you’ll work collaboratively with our creatives and strategists to create fully integrated marketing campaigns for major international brands.
An experienced Account Manager, we’ll need you to have a marketing / advertising agency background, but, most importantly, it’s your can-do attitude and approach we’re interested in.
Beyond this, you’ll be a force to be reckoned with when it comes to getting the job done, across on and offline channels, from initial concept to execution. You’re great at managing multiple projects under pressure, getting the team organised and ensuring everything is running smoothly.
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.
