Business Development / Client Development
London | Hybrid | £30–35,000 depending on experience
This is not a conventional sales job.
Our client is an unusual combination: a commercial business with the creativity, purpose and personality of one of the world’s leading drama schools. They work with individuals, teams and organisations to help them communicate, collaborate and perform at their best. Their clients include some of the world’s best-known organisations, across multiple sectors, from around the world.
They are growing, and they are looking for ambitious people in the first few years of their career, to join their business development team.
You might already work in account management, business development or sales. Or you might be doing something similar without calling it that - building relationships, talking to clients, solving problems, spotting opportunities and making things happen.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Either way, we’re more interested in how you work than whether you fit a conventional sales profile.
This is relationship-led business development. So you’ll need to understand what clients are trying to achieve, identify where you can help and turn conversations into long-term commercial relationships.
This could be an ideal next role for someone who:
- Builds rapport quickly and are comfortable talking to senior decision-makers.
- Is genuinely curious about people and organisations.
- Listens, asks good questions and gets to the heart of what the client needs.
- Has good commercial instincts and can spot an opportunity.
- Brings energy and initiative and makes things happen.
- Communicates clearly and naturally.
- Is organised and reliable and follows things through.
- Is keen to learn and responds well to coaching and feedback

We’re not looking for the finished article. We’re looking for bright, engaging, commercially minded people who can build trust, create opportunities and grow with us.
As you develop, you’ll take greater ownership of clients, opportunities and revenue, with the opportunity to progress into senior business development and client leadership roles.
If that sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you.
