Come and help us create a more meaningful kind of ROI – for our clients, our people and our culture.


Overview

We are hiring an Ad Operations Manager to play a pivotal role at the centre of a truly global digital ecosystem. This role sits at the heart of high-impact, multi-market digital activation, ensuring campaigns are delivered with precision, care and consistency at scale. Working across London, the US and more than 30 international markets, you’ll help shape how digital media connects with people in meaningful, responsible ways. If you enjoy combining technical expertise with collaboration and purpose, this is a role where your work will genuinely matter.

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.
