Are you an ambitious Senior Account Executive with a passion for enterprise tech and B2B storytelling?

This independent PR agency in Basingstoke is looking for a SAE to join their growing team and play a key role across a diverse, fast-moving client portfolio.

The agency

You’ll be joining an independent, specialist enterprise tech PR agency with a friendly, collaborative culture and a genuine focus on long-term career development. Their client portfolio spans a diverse mix of innovative technology companies, from fast-growth scale-ups to established global brands, giving you the chance to work on varied campaigns and complex, high-impact stories.

The team combines strategic insight with hands-on media relations, content and digital PR, and you’ll be encouraged to bring your ideas to the table and grow into a trusted adviser to clients.

The role

As Senior Account Executive, you will:

  • Support day-to-day management of enterprise tech PR accounts, ensuring work is delivered on time and to a high standard
  • Build strong relationships with clients, becoming a go-to contact for updates, reporting and campaign delivery
  • Drive media relations: researching targets, drafting pitches, selling in stories and securing high-quality coverage
  • Create compelling content: press releases, thought-leadership articles, blogs and social assets, on complex tech topics
  • Help plan and execute integrated campaigns, working closely with colleagues across PR, digital and content
  • Monitor results and produce clear, insightful reports that show the impact of activity

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.
