Business Development Consultant
We’re looking for a commercially minded Business Development Consultant to work alongside our Field Sales Consultants and help unlock growth in high-potential territories.
This role is about identifying opportunity, opening doors, and building the foundations for long-term success. You’ll take a broader, more strategic view of the territory — analysing potential, engaging key prospects, and helping shape how we expand our presence in targeted areas.
If you enjoy spotting gaps in the market, developing new routes to growth, and working collaboratively to turn opportunity into results, this could be the role for you.
The Role
- Identifying high-opportunity customer, and growth areas
- Researching and targeting new business opportunities
- Building early-stage relationships with key decision-makers and influencers
- Opening new accounts and creating a strong pipeline of future business
- Working closely with Field Sales Consultants to develop the territory
- Supporting territory planning and helping define go-to-market strategies
- Representing the business professionally and confidently when engaging new prospects
- Providing excellent service, including after-sale follow-up, to ensure customer satisfaction
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.
