Job Description

Our team sits at the heart of regional decision-making—connecting data, creativity, and collaboration to drive impactful campaigns across markets.
The Role
As Planning Manager, you’ll lead the development of integrated media plans across Europe, ensuring campaigns are strategically aligned, expertly executed, and continuously optimized. You’ll translate client objectives into full-funnel channel strategies, working across digital, social, and offline media.
- You’ll own campaign planning and delivery, including approvals, pacing, and performance tracking using planning tools such as Omni.
- Partnering closely with local market teams, you’ll ensure global strategies are effectively implemented while allowing for local nuance.
- Alongside execution, you’ll build strong client relationships, present recommendations to stakeholders, and provide ongoing analysis to improve results.
- You’ll also stay close to industry trends, contribute ideas, and collaborate across teams to drive innovation and best practice.
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.
