Financial Services Marketing & PR
Remote-first (UK-based)
Circa £125,000 package (base, bonus and bespoke commission scheme) + EMI shares
Our client is an established, specialist marketing, content and PR agency serving the financial services sector, with strong roots in capital markets and ambitions to expand into payments, mortgage broking and wider financial services. Entering an ambitious growth phase, they are creating a new board-level commercial leadership role to drive their next stage of expansion.
What you'll do
- Sit on the Board and report directly to the CEO, owning commercial performance end to end
- Take direct responsibility for the firm's highest-value existing client relationships, bringing structure and rigour to how they're managed
- Build and run a disciplined new business process: targeting, pipeline, forecasting and CRM hygiene
- Open new client verticals beyond the firm's traditional base, including payments and broader financial services
- Shape the sales function as you see fit, then build a team beneath you as the business scales
- Support a planned push into the US market as part of the firm's medium-term growth plans
- Champion an AI-first, tools-driven approach to sales and client management
- Contribute to Board-level discussions on strategy and long-term direction
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 we're looking for
- 7+ years in senior commercial, sales or client leadership roles, with a strong track record of winning and growing business
- Strong knowledge of financial services, ideally including capital markets, with an active senior UK network
- Comfortable owning large, complex or high-value client accounts and earning trust quickly at a senior level
- A proactive, go-to-market thinker rather than a reactive, relationship-only seller
- Startup mentality: happy defining your own approach without an existing playbook
- Highly organised and process-driven, with the discipline to keep pipeline, proposals and CRM data accurate
- A confident, hands-on user of AI and modern sales/CRM tools
- Based in the UK, with willingness to travel nationally and internationally
- Agency background is a strong plus but not essential — understanding how marketing, content or PR services are bought and sold matters more than the label
