Ready to take the next step in your social career? Do you live & breathe social media, and have your finger on the pulse of the latest trends, moments and content formats?
ThePlaceToBe are working with a well-known agency in Leeds, with a strong social offering. They are now looking for a Senior Social Media Executive to join the team.
About the role…
This would be a perfect role for somebody who can demonstrate experience across both paid and organic social media strategies.
You will be involved in the end-to-end process from being involved in the brief taking, to liaising with the creative team, through to launching on social media channels, and then analysing the numbers and trends. You will be working very closely with the senior leadership team, so you'll need to be a confident communicator.
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.
