Know the estate agency world in your city? Our client wants to pay you to build on that.
We're recruiting Business Development Executives on behalf of a growing chartered surveying practice expanding across the North.

The role
- Build and grow a referral network with estate and letting agents across your patch
- Develop relationships with mortgage brokers, financial advisers and relocation agents who need surveying services regularly
- Run your own outbound activity: calls, meetings, branch visits
- Identify new opportunities across residential and commercial property
- Represent the business at industry events and networking evenings
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.

Who our client is looking for

- Self-motivated, comfortable owning your own diary and your own region
- Property experience (estate agency, lettings, or property BD) is a strong advantage, but personality matters more than the CV here
