Senior Media Planner/Buyer | Derbyshire | £30,000–£35,000 | Hybrid

A multi-award-winning independent media agency with offices across the Midlands and North West is growing its planning and buying team - and this brand-new senior role is your chance to join them.

The role

You'll own multi-channel media strategy and buying across TV, radio, OOH, press and digital — managing your own client accounts, negotiating with media owners and acting as a senior support to the wider planning team.

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.
