Job title: Senior Paid Media Manager (eCommerce)
Location: London (Hybrid, Flexible)
Salary: £50,000
The Company
This is a well-established and highly regarded eCommerce business with a strong reputation within its industry and an established customer base. The business has built a successful online presence and a strong track record of growth, with Paid Media playing an important role in its continued success.
Despite already being well established, the business has ambitious plans for further growth. There is a clear focus on continuing to scale customer acquisition, increase online revenue and identify new opportunities across its digital channels.
The culture is collaborative and forward-thinking, with people trusted to take ownership, share ideas and challenge conventional thinking. Innovation, testing and continuous improvement are embedded into the way the team works, giving you the opportunity to make a genuine commercial impact rather than simply manage campaigns.
You’ll work alongside experienced digital, eCommerce and marketing specialists, gaining exposure to a wide range of campaigns, customer journeys and performance strategies. Your experience will allow you to take ownership of Paid Media activity, influence wider acquisition strategy and play an important role in supporting the next stage of the company’s growth.
The Role
As a Senior Paid Media Manager, you’ll take ownership of the Paid Media strategy and performance across the eCommerce business.
This is a hands-on and commercially focused position, combining campaign management and optimisation with strategic planning, performance analysis and wider commercial input. You’ll be responsible for identifying opportunities to improve acquisition performance, making recommendations around budget allocation and helping shape the continued growth of the Paid Media function.
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.
