The Role

As a Direct Marketing Executive, you’ll play a key role in the delivery of multi-channel direct marketing campaigns, with a particular focus on email marketing.

You’ll work closely with experienced marketers, internal teams, and external suppliers to plan, set up, and deliver campaigns accurately and efficiently. From managing data and email templates through to testing, deployment, and performance reporting, you’ll help ensure campaigns are delivered on time and to a high standard.

This is a great opportunity to build your marketing expertise, develop your commercial awareness, and grow within a supportive team.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Planning, setting up, executing, and managing end-to-end email marketing campaigns across multiple email platforms
  • Managing campaign data uploads, email templates, testing, deployment, and scheduling
  • Monitoring campaign performance and reporting on key metrics
  • Proofreading marketing communications across email, print, and digital channels
  • Reviewing and approving creative artwork, mailing proofs, campaign packs, and enclosures
  • Raising and managing purchase orders, including budget allocation and tracking
  • Validating data counts and audience selections for campaign targeting
  • Managing Jira tickets, approvals, and workflow tracking
  • Coordinating with internal teams and external suppliers to keep campaigns on schedule
  • Using campaign performance to help provide insight for future marketing activity
  • Ensuring customer marketing communications meet GDPR, FCA, Data Protection Act, and Treating Customers Fairly requirements
  • Providing general administrative support to ensure effective campaign delivery

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.
