Digital Communications Officer
Merton Council is looking for a Digital Communications Officer to join our Communications and Engagement team.

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.
You'll work closely with colleagues across the council, advise senior officers and members on digital approaches, and take part in our press office rota, including out-of-hours cover and newsletter duties.

- A strong portfolio of creative, original content
- Skills in video editing tools such as CapCut and Canva
- Experience running paid social campaigns on Meta and Google
