Business Development and Bids Director

Bedfordshire

We are currently working with an established and growing contractor within the Social Housing sector who are looking to appoint a Business Development & Bids Director. This is a senior appointment within the business and would suit someone with a strong background in bids, tenders, and business development within Social Housing, Property Services, or a similar contracting environment.

Alongside overseeing bids and major tender submissions, there will be a strong focus on business development. The successful candidate will be expected to identify new opportunities, develop relationships with prospective clients, and look at new markets and workstreams the business can move into.

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.
