Elite Marketing Systems - Social Media Marketing Apprentice

Elite Marketing Systems are looking for an energetic, confident Social Media Marketing Apprentice with great communication skills and a positive, outgoing attitude who wants to build a real career in marketing.

About the role:

This is not a basic posting role! Your work will play a key part in wider client strategies, and you’ll have the opportunity to grow into a bigger position within a full-service agency. You’ll also gain exposure to marketing on a much wider scale, including strategy, psychology, branding, design, sales, lead generation, and more. And all team members are expected to support in other areas of the business where required to support the team.

By the end of probation, we’d expect you to be handling your responsibilities confidently, communicating with clients directly, and delivering strong paid and organic social media work without assistance. This role offers a clear progression path: Assistant Social Media Manager → Account Manager → Head of Social.

If you want to grow fast, do meaningful work, and be part of an agency that values results over vanity metrics, we want to hear from you.

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.
