Ready to build something?
FMC is entering one of the most exciting chapters in its 31-year history. We’ve recently joined The Simplyhealth Group – bringing together FMC, Simplyhealth and Denplan and creating new opportunities for investment, innovation and growth.
And we’re growing our commercial team.
We’re looking for someone who gets a buzz from meeting new people, spotting an opportunity others might miss and turning a first conversation into a long-term commercial relationship.
You might already work in media. You might come from events, publishing, SaaS, advertising, recruitment, healthcare or another fast-paced B2B sales environment.
So, what’s the opportunity?
Your role is to create opportunity.
You'll be responsible for finding businesses we should be working with, reigniting relationships with previous clients and building a pipeline of new commercial partnerships across FMC's media portfolio.
This isn't a role for somebody who wants to sit behind a desk waiting for enquiries. We want you out there – at exhibitions, conferences, awards, launches and industry events, building relationships across one of the UK's largest professional healthcare sectors.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
You'll meet marketing directors, founders, sales leaders and commercial teams. Find out what's launching, who's growing, where businesses are investing and what they're trying to achieve – then turn those conversations into opportunities.
