About the team
At Nectar360, our vision is to be the most powerful insight and data-led media services agency in the country, creating valuable relationships between the UK’s favourite brands and their customers to help them live well for less. Digital is a key and growing part of our business, with significant investment behind our Digital Trading Platform (DTP) — enabling targeting and measurement across display, social and TV using our powerful data assets. Within the Commercial team, the Digital Agency team plays a central role in delivering against revenue targets while providing consistently great client service to agencies, partners and brands.
More about the role
This role sits in our agency team and is critical to the growth of Nectar360’s Digital business area. You’ll run your own agency patch (overseen by the Digital Client Director), taking ownership for delivering revenue and profit from your group while also supporting FMCG/GM clients as needed. You’ll be the face of Nectar360’s digital propositions to agencies, building on established relationships and proactively developing new ones — including reaching out to cold contacts to grow a healthy pipeline.
Day-to-day, you’ll translate technical and commercial understanding of the digital media space into clear, compelling conversations that ‘sell’ Nectar360’s digital proposition and services. You’ll contribute to the Digital team’s strategy by being clear on the role you play and how to articulate it to your agencies. You’ll also provide an agency lens into product development — feeding back into the Digital Client Director on new campaign propositions taken to market through DTP. Finally, you’ll help ensure great campaign delivery by feeding into the pipeline, aligning commitments to clients with the Digital Trading Manager’s capacity, and sharing timely feedback so trading and implementation continue to improve.
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.
