Account Manager
We are looking for a PR star who has a passion for the energy sector. We are a friendly, busy team, with BIG ambitions and we need a hungry, dynamic Account Manager who is energetic and creative, with an exceptional eye for detail and an appetite to get stuck into our strong portfolio of international clients.
The role
No two days are the same, but to give you an idea of the sort of work you can expect to be involved with:
- Lead media relations activity and proactively seek out new opportunities.
- Deliver agreed PR/marketing goals with clients on a regular/monthly basis, using skills, experience, contacts, and imagination to achieve targeted results against objectives, and flagging up any potential issues that might occur.
- Create opportunities for positive engagement with targeted audiences through a range of platforms.
- Manage the client feedback process; working with junior staff to deliver accurate cuttings, analysis, and reports, as required.
- Build and maintain relationships with third-party suppliers and production staff and negotiate best rates on behalf of clients and control budgets.
- Seek out, maintain, and build relationships with journalists and other stakeholders to meet the client’s objectives.
- Attend client meetings (usually but not always with an Account Director present) and structure creative marketing and PR plans to direct activity.
- Work in an integrated way with the wider business, seeking out opportunities to introduce new services to clients.
The perks
We are a fast-paced independent agency, with a collaborative and supportive culture and a real emphasis on helping every member of our team achieve their potential. We value energy and commitment highly. If you’re the right person for this opportunity, you can count on:
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.
