Are you a senior marketing professional who thrives on both setting strategy and bringing it to life through hands on delivery?
Our client, a leading venue in Warwickshire, is looking for an experienced, commercially minded Head of Marketing to take full ownership of their marketing strategy and delivery. This is a pivotal leadership role for a true all-rounder who can define clear strategic direction and also bring it to life through effective, day to day execution.
Working in partnership with the Sales and Marketing Director, you will be responsible for shaping the marketing direction of the business, strengthening brand positioning, and delivering integrated, multi-channel activity that generates leads, builds engagement, and supports sustainable growth.
This role would suit someone who is equally comfortable operating at a strategic level with senior stakeholders as they are delivering campaigns, creating content, and optimizing performance in a fast-paced environment.

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.
