Love being on the phone? Good at getting through gatekeepers? Get a buzz from turning a cold contact into a proper sales conversation and booked appointment?

- Make outbound calls to businesses and speak with decision makers, influencers and gatekeepers.
- Use a clear call plan to ask qualifying questions and identify potential opportunities.
- Book appointments and follow-up calls for the sales lead.
- Research target companies and build prospect lists using LinkedIn, company websites and industry databases.

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 Should Have
- Have at least 12 months’ B2B telephone sales, telesales, telemarketing or lead generation experience. This is a non-negotiable because this role needs you to hit the ground running!
- Genuinely enjoy making outbound calls.
- Are confident speaking with senior business contacts.
- Know how to get past gatekeepers professionally.
- Are persistent without being pushy.
- Can ask good questions and listen carefully to the answers.
- Are organised, accurate and comfortable working to activity targets.
- Can research prospects and build call lists methodically.
- Are confident using CRM systems, spreadsheets, LinkedIn and online research tools.
- Are positive, reliable and comfortable taking coaching and feedback.
MUST HAVE - Experience in appointment setting, cold calling, business development, SDR/BDR activity or inside sales is a must.
Why Join Us?
This isn’t a “smile and dial” call-centre role.
You’ll be doing proper B2B business development: researching accounts, finding the right people, starting commercial conversations and helping create genuine sales opportunities by building a thoroughly researched and well qualified sales pipeline for our teams.
We’re looking for someone who takes pride in doing telesales well — someone who is curious, commercially minded, resilient and enjoys the challenge of getting through to the right person.
If you like the buzz of opening a conversation, uncovering an opportunity and getting the next meeting in the diary, we’d like to hear from you.
