Salary: DOE
About Us
Founded in 2023, we're one of the fastest-growing digital marketing agencies in the UK, helping eCommerce brands scale profitably through performance-driven creative and paid social strategies.
We believe in ownership, growth, and excellence. We're building a team of hungry, curious marketers who love to win. Our managing directors come from a decade of business experience, bringing values and skills to the agency to set us apart from the rest.
The Role
You'll own the creative that goes into market for our eCommerce clients. Targeting is automated and budgets are optimised, so the ad itself is the biggest lever we have left. You research the brand, its customers and its competitors, write the briefs, direct the output and read the data to decide what gets tested next.
This role suits someone with 2+ years in an agency or D2C brand who wants to work under a Head of Creative with 14 years across a huge range of brands, rather than figure it out alone.
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.
