Job Opportunity: Global Social Media Lead

Our client is building a new global in-house social capability and is looking for an experienced social leader to shape its direction from the ground up. You’ll join a creative organisation operating across international hubs, with the opportunity to influence how a major global brand communicates across social channels. This is a high-profile position combining strategic leadership, creative ambition and commercial awareness, with direct exposure to senior stakeholders and the freedom to establish new ways of working. You’ll help move social from a reactive publishing function into a proactive, insight-led engine that creates distinctive, relevant and engaging content for modern audiences.

Role Highlights

  • Build and lead a new social media function spanning international creative hubs.
  • Set channel strategies across LinkedIn, Instagram and TikTok, adapting content to each audience.
  • Turn performance data and audience insights into sharper creative direction and publishing plans.
  • Develop creator, influencer and co-creation programmes that produce authentic, platform-native content.
  • Partner with creative teams, agencies and senior leaders to deliver consistent, high-impact campaigns.

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.
