- Support the sales team in converting campaign opportunities and delivering against client expectations.
- Build and maintain trusted relationships with allocated clients, retailers and suppliers.
- Independently manage inbound enquiries, insert advertisers, bookings and allocated projects.
- Coordinate with experiential, print and packaging suppliers, negotiating effectively to achieve high-quality and commercially competitive outcomes.
- Create and manage detailed project plans and critical pathways, identifying potential delays, risks and contingency requirements.
- Monitor campaign budgets, commercials and profitability.
- Maintain accurate revenue forecasts, pipelines and account updates.
- Ensure client and supplier KPIs, service levels and deadlines are consistently achieved.
- Identify suitable brands for campaigns and undertake outreach to both new and existing contacts.
- Spot opportunities to increase revenue and client spend across allocated accounts.
- Prepare clear, persuasive presentations, proposals and strategic narratives for client and supplier meetings.
- Attend and occasionally present or pitch during client and supplier meetings.
- Manage essential campaign administration, including supplier set-up, purchase orders, billing, invoicing and payment terms.
- Travel independently to client meetings and campaign locations when required.
- Represent the organisation professionally and in line with its core values.
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.
