- Leading planning, delivery and optimisation across programmatic and paid search (biddable)
- Owning client relationships and strategy across a portfolio of accounts
- Overseeing budget delivery and pacing on key client accounts
- Contributing to department innovation, keeping the team ahead on platform and AI developments

Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
✅ What they're looking for
- Must be UK based, with the right to work in the UK
- Hands-on DSP experience (DV360, StackAdapt) plus search platforms (Google, Bing)
- Comfortable with AI-driven campaign tools like PMax and AI Max
- A track record managing budgets exceeding £1m across multiple clients and channels
- Confident building and presenting performance reports, with a real focus on analysis and recommendations
- B2B experience is a plus, and so is broader channel knowledge (social) or ad trafficking
- Search is the priority here. If you're stronger on search than programmatic, that's fine, there's real scope to build your programmatic side once you're in. Slightly more junior candidates ready to step up are welcome to apply, salary will flex to match experience.
