Graduate Account Executive – Maldon / Hybrid – £25K - £30K + Benefits
✨ Your digital marketing career starts here ✨
Just finished (or about to finish) your degree in Maths, Business, Data Analytics, Economics, Marketing or something equally brainy? Obsessed with data, trends, TikTok ads, or figuring out why certain campaigns blow up? Want a job where you actually learn real skills instead of making coffee?
Welcome to your next move. We’re working with a growing digital agency in Maldon looking for a Graduate Account Executive who’s curious, analytical and ready to dive head‑first into the world of paid media. You’ll get proper training, real client responsibility and a team who genuinely want you to win.
If you’re the kind of person who loves solving problems, spotting patterns and making things better — you’re going to thrive here.
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.
🌈 What you’ll get up to
- Help plan and deliver paid media campaigns (yes, the ads you actually see online)
- Set up, monitor and optimise campaigns across platforms like Meta and Google Ads
- Turn data into insights and create reports clients actually understand
- Research audiences, markets and competitors (you’ll be surprised how fun this is)
- Support the day‑to‑day running of multiple client accounts
- Work closely with senior specialists who’ll teach you everything they know
- Build your digital marketing skills from the ground up
💡 What you’ll bring
- A recent degree in Maths, Business, Data Analytics, Economics, Marketing or similar
- A genuine interest in digital marketing and paid media
- Strong analytical thinking — you like numbers and what they mean
- Clear communication and solid attention to detail
- A proactive, positive attitude (you don’t wait to be told twice)
- Any marketing or agency experience is a bonus, but not essential
