Location: London, 3 days a week in the office
Salary: £120,000 + Benefits
We're searching for an exceptional retail marketing leader to take ownership of shopper marketing across a complex, fast-moving retail environment where every customer interaction matters.
This is an opportunity to influence how millions of customers engage with a household retail brand - creating seamless experiences that connect commercial priorities with customer needs across an extensive store network.
You'll inherit a broad and varied remit, giving you the platform to drive innovation, challenge existing thinking and build marketing programmes that deliver measurable commercial results.
Where You'll Add Value
Success in this role isn't measured by the number of campaigns you deliver- it's about the impact those campaigns have on the customer journey and the commercial performance of the business.
You'll be trusted to:
- Turn customer insight into engaging retail experiences.
- Create marketing strategies that influence purchasing behaviour.
- Ensure stores are equipped with compelling, consistent customer communications.
- Identify new opportunities to improve how customers discover, shop and engage with the brand.
- Work collaboratively with commercial, retail and operational teams to maximise key trading moments.
- Introduce new ideas that improve effectiveness while simplifying 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.
