Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
This is a 100% remote position, so you'll need to be comfortable managing your own workload and maintaining consistent sales activity without close supervision.
The Experience We Require
We're deliberately looking for someone with direct advertising sales experience rather than general sales experience. You should have previous experience selling one or more of the following:
- Magazine advertising
- Newspaper or publishing advertising
- Print advertising
- Digital advertising
- Online advertising packages
- Multi-platform media packages
- Local or regional media advertising
You'll already understand how to:
- Prospect for advertisers
- Speak confidently with business owners and marketing managers
- Establish a client's advertising objectives
- Present advertising packages and opportunities
- Handle common advertising objections
- Follow up effectively
- Close advertising bookings
- Build long-term advertiser relationships
If you've previously worked for a magazine publisher, newspaper group, local media company, digital publisher or advertising/media business, we'd particularly like to hear from you.
What We Offer
- 100% remote working
- Flexible working arrangement
- Day rate
- Uncapped commission
- Ongoing commission on retained advertising clients
- Established portfolio of 21 magazine titles
- Existing brand and sales materials
- Support from an experienced publishing team
