About Climbing Trees
We are a digital marketing agency based in Essex, doing positive digital marketing, for good. Honest work, real results, and a genuine commitment to the clients and people we work with since 2014. A close-knit team of specialists who care: about excellent work, about growing client businesses, and about each other.
The Role
This is a hands-on performance role. You will manage paid media across a portfolio of clients, strategy, build, tracking, budget pacing, reporting, and client conversations. We need someone who can walk in and contribute from day one: proactive, rigorous, and always thinking ahead. Not someone who waits to be asked.
We also want someone thinking about where paid media is heading, AI tools, privacy changes, server-side tracking, and how we keep delivering brilliant results in a more complex environment.
Paid search, paid social and e-commerce
- Own paid search and paid social strategy for a portfolio of clients, build, optimise, and report with a genuine focus on outcomes, not activity.
- Lead e-commerce campaigns including Google Shopping and Performance Max. Stay close to platform changes and bring proactive recommendations to clients.
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.
Tracking, measurement and reporting
- Set up and maintain GA4, GTM, Consent Mode, and measurement frameworks independently, without relying on a developer.
- Build Looker Studio dashboards clients actually use. Turn data into clear recommendations: what happened, why, and what comes next.
Client management and commercial growth
- Own client relationships end-to-end, calls, strategic reviews, difficult conversations, and spotting opportunities to grow accounts.
- Bring practical AI into your workflow. Share what you are learning with the team and help build better, faster processes.
