Are you a proactive and commercially minded sales professional looking to make a real impact?

We’re looking for a Business Development Executive to help drive the expansion of our Short-Term Management (SMC) contracts and grow our commercial property portfolio. This is an exciting opportunity to play a key role in identifying new commercial partnerships, building strong client relationships, and directly contributing to our strategic growth targets.

About the Role

As a Business Development Executive, you’ll manage the full lifecycle of new business opportunities, from lead generation and research through to proposal development and contract completion. You’ll work closely with our Business Development Manager and wider Commercial team to secure new sites and partnerships across a diverse client base, including:

  • Supermarket chains
  • Leisure centres
  • Pub & restaurant groups
  • Hotels
  • Healthcare providers
  • And other organisations operating car parks outside of the traditional parking sector

What You’ll Be Doing:

  • Identifying and developing new short-term management opportunities
  • Researching and engaging prospective clients to understand their needs
  • Creating compelling, high-quality sales proposals that showcase TIMES24 UK's value
  • Managing and progressing opportunities through every stage of the sales cycle
  • Maintaining an active, accurate sales pipeline using CRM systems
  • Supporting larger or more complex commercial opportunities alongside the BDM
  • Preparing pipeline updates, reporting data, and proposal documentation
  • Representing TIMES24 UK professionally at meetings, site visits, and networking events
  • Ensuring smooth handovers of new contracts to operational teams
  • Contributing to the continuous improvement of sales processes and materials

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.
