About Zenzero
Zenzero is one of the UK's fastest-growing technology companies. Named a Top 8 Technology Company at the British Business Awards 2026, recognised by Deloitte as a Best Managed Company, and featured in the Sunday Times Hundred (an annual ranking of the UK's fastest-growing private companies) in both 2025 and 2026, we hold Microsoft Solutions Partner status across all six designations, putting us in the top tier of UK Microsoft partners. The accolades reflect something real: a business that is scaling fast, executing well, and building something that lasts.
We're on a mission to make technology genuinely work for mid-market businesses, covering managed IT, cyber security, cloud, and AI solutions that actually move the needle. The demand is growing, and so are we.
We're also a certified B Corp and Scale Up Award winner. That combination matters to us: high growth and high standards aren't in conflict here. Fast growth, high standards, real impact. If that sounds like your kind of place, keep reading.
About the Role
Zenzero is launching an exciting new agency service, bringing our paid media expertise to both our own group brands and external agency customers. As our first dedicated Paid Media Manager, you'll take ownership of paid advertising performance across Google Ads and LinkedIn Ads, with a growing remit across Meta and wider paid social. You'll work closely with our Head of Demand Generation and SEO Lead to build a joined-up, high performing paid and organic offering - laying the foundations for what is expected to become a wider paid media team as the business, and this role, continue to grow.
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.
