Start your career in digital marketing. No experience needed, just curiosity and drive. Learn SEO, PPC and social ads while working on real campaigns, supported by experts. Grow fast, gain skills and progress to managing your own campaigns in a creative, fast-paced team.
Most of your apprenticeship is spent working. You’ll learn on the job by getting hands-on experience.
What you'll do at work
An Apprentice Digital Marketing Assistant will begin their role by providing essential support to other members of the Experiences team, particularly those managing client accounts. In the early stages, their primary responsibility will be to assist with a variety of tasks delegated by more senior team members (Executives & Account Managers).
These tasks may include:
Paid / PPC:
- Keyword research for paid campaigns
- Ad copy creation, quality checks
- Budget tracking, competitor / audience research
- Preparation of reports
Organic / SEO:
- Keyword research
- On-page optimisation
- Content scheduling
- Technical SEO checks
- Competitor analysis
- Preparation of performance reports
The purpose of this phase is to build a strong foundation of knowledge and experience while learning the internal processes, platforms, and standards of the agency.
The apprentice will be expected to develop a clear understanding of paid and organic media platforms (e.g. Google Ads, Meta Ads, LinkedIn Ads, SEMRush) and how they are used to deliver results across different types of client campaigns. As they become more confident and competent in completing assigned tasks accurately and on time, they will gradually take on more responsibility and ownership over specific areas of work. Once they demonstrate a consistent level of quality, initiative, and understanding of client needs, they will be given the opportunity to support accounts more independently or begin managing smaller campaigns.
This will involve taking a more proactive role in planning and executing paid media strategies, communicating directly with clients, and reporting on performance.
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.
