About My Client
My client is a market-leading provider of data, insights, and software solutions that support the construction and professional services sectors. Their innovative platforms help businesses make smarter decisions, win more work, and operate more efficiently. They are known for their fantastic culture, open, respectful, and collaborative, where high performance is recognised and rewarded.
The Opportunity
I am looking for a driven and motivated Business Development Executive to join a high-performing team in a pure new business role, focused on winning new clients across the UK.
This is a hybrid, office-based position, not a field sales role. All client meetings, presentations, and product demonstrations are conducted remotely via Microsoft Teams, allowing you to focus on building pipeline and closing deals without the need for travel to client sites.
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.
