About Nextwave
Nextwave is a specialized creative strategy and positioning agency helping early-stage Music AI & MusicTech startups turn their advanced technology into clear market positioning, solid value propositions, and measurable growth. We bridge the gap between complex engineering and commercial storytelling.
The Role
We are looking for a tech-savvy and proactive Business Development & Growth Executive to help us expand our client base across the UK, Europe, and the US. Your exclusive target will be early-stage tech founders who have a great product but struggle with marketing narrative and positioning.
Key Responsibilities
- Research, map, and identify early-stage Music AI, audio tech, and MusicTech companies that need market positioning.
- Generate qualified B2B leads through LinkedIn Sales Navigator, tech communities, and outbound email.
- Start personalized, high-value conversations with technical founders and CEOs (no automated slop).
- Book discovery calls and support the sales process through to conversion.
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.
What We Are Looking For
- Previous experience in B2B sales, lead generation, tech recruitment, or client acquisition.
- A solid understanding of the tech/AI landscape. Terms like APIs, machine learning, or audio processing shouldn't scare you off.
- Strong written and spoken English with the ability to speak the same language as startup founders.
- Organised, consistent, and highly motivated by financial results.

Compensation & Benefits
- Initial commission-based position offering 20% commission on every client successfully converted, calculated on the client’s first payment.
- Additional performance bonuses and a clear path to transition into a longer-term paid retainer role as Nextwave grows.
- 100% remote work and completely flexible hours.
How to Apply
Please send a short introduction about yourself, your relevant sales/tech experience, and a brief example of how you would identify and approach a potential Nextwave client in the Music AI space.
