Regional Business Development Executive

Location: UK (National Travel Required)
Salary: Competitive + Bonus + Benefits

Coll-8 is growing, and we're looking for a commercially driven Regional Business Development Executive to help accelerate our expansion across the UK.

This is an exciting opportunity for an ambitious sales professional with experience in logistics, transport, or related sectors to take ownership of the full new business sales cycle. From identifying prospects and developing opportunities through to negotiation, onboarding, and account growth, you'll play a key role in delivering revenue growth and expanding our customer base.

Working closely with the Commercial Director and wider leadership team, you'll have the autonomy to develop your territory while contributing to the continued success of a fast-growing business.

The Role

As a Regional Business Development Executive, you will:

  • Identify and secure new business opportunities across your territory.
  • Build and manage a strong pipeline of qualified prospects.
  • Develop relationships with key decision-makers and stakeholders.
  • Lead customer meetings, presentations, and commercial negotiations.
  • Create compelling proposals and close profitable new business opportunities.
  • Achieve and exceed agreed sales and revenue targets.
  • Support customer onboarding and develop newly won accounts to maximize value.
  • Maintain accurate CRM records, forecasts, and pipeline reporting.
  • Monitor market trends, competitor activity, and emerging business opportunities.
  • Work closely with commercial and operational teams to ensure excellent customer outcomes.
  • Travel throughout the UK for customer meetings, networking events, and business development activity.

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.
