BATH UNIVERSITY PARTNERSHIP
FOR STUDENTS UNDERTAKING A 12-MONTH UNIVERSITY PLACEMENT
Separate from our Academy, we also run a dedicated partnership with Bath University to support students who are still studying and looking for real-world industry experience.
Through this programme, students get hands-on exposure to agency life far beyond the classroom - from mock interviews and industry insights to career development sessions with our team.
We also offer a 12-month placement at Charlie Oscar, where students join us full time for a year: working on real projects, supporting live campaigns, and learning alongside our teams across the business. It’s a head start into the industry, building confidence, skills, and practical experience that stays with them long after university.
This partnership is a big part of how we support early talent, giving students a genuine look into agency life while helping shape the next generation of digital marketers.
OLIVIA'S PLACEMENT YEAR
My placement at Charlie Oscar has been an amazing learning experience. I’ve gained real hands-on exposure to influencer marketing - from running gifting campaigns and managing outreach to tracking performance and supporting affiliate work. Seeing influencers post about brands I’ve worked on has been a real highlight.
I’ve also had the chance to contribute to wider campaigns for brands like itsu and The Ritz Calrton Yacht Collection , which gave me great insight into how different teams collaborate.
The culture here has been a huge part of my growth. For my first office role, Charlie Oscar has set the bar high - the team is supportive, welcoming, and genuinely fun to work with.
Overall, it’s been a hugely confidence-building experience, and I’m excited to keep learning throughout my placement.
