We’re working with a growing performance marketing agency in Altrincham that partners with a varied portfolio of eCommerce, retail and direct-to-consumer brands.

They’re looking for a Paid Media Executive to join their friendly and ambitious team. This would suit someone with previous experience across either paid search or paid social who is keen to broaden their knowledge and develop into a well-rounded paid media specialist.

You might currently be strongest across Google Ads and Microsoft Ads, or you may have more experience managing campaigns through Meta, TikTok or LinkedIn. Experience across both search and social would be ideal, but it isn’t essential, as the agency are happy to train the right person across the areas they have less experience in.

Strong client communication will be particularly important. You’ll manage your own portfolio of accounts, speak directly with clients and help them understand campaign performance, so you’ll need to be confident, commercially aware and comfortable building trusted relationships.

The Role

You’ll be responsible for building, launching and optimising paid media campaigns across a range of platforms, which could include Google Ads, Microsoft Ads, Meta, LinkedIn, TikTok and Snapchat.

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.
