Senior Paid Media Executive
Location: London (office-based, hybrid)
Salary: £30,000 – £35,000 + bonus
Type: Full-time, permanent
About the agency
An independent, fast-growing media agency is expanding its paid media team on the back of strong organic growth. The agency works across a genuinely diverse client base — from B2B and B2C financial services, to transport and public sector, consumer brands, membership bodies in the creative industries, and B2B telecoms — giving the successful candidate exposure to a broad mix of sectors and objectives, from brand-building to hard performance.
This is a rare opportunity to join a growing, independent shop at a pivotal point, with genuine scope to shape your own channel specialism as the team scales.
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.
The role
You'll join as a Senior Paid Media Executive with a primary focus on paid social and programmatic, working closely with the wider paid media team. The split is approximately:
- 70% paid social / programmatic
- 30% paid search
You'll be exposed to a wide variety of client objectives — from B2B lead generation to consumer brand and content engagement campaigns — giving you the platform to build a genuinely well-rounded skill set.
What we're looking for
- Solid hands-on experience in paid social and/or programmatic (Google Ads experience is a strong plus, particularly given the shift toward audience-based buying)
- At least 12–18 months' relevant experience
- Open to candidates from network or independent agency backgrounds
- Curious, proactive, and genuinely interested in the "why" behind campaign decisions — not just execution
- Comfortable wearing multiple hats as part of a smaller, close-knit team

Process
- Initial Teams call (45–60 mins) — competency-based, getting to know your experience and fit
- Face-to-face second stage - a short test, followed by a presentation and conversation
Start date: Ideally September/October, though the agency is happy to wait for the right person. Candidates on shorter notice periods (1–2 months) are welcome to apply.
