About Compass Courier Services
Compass Courier Services is a same-day courier business with over 35 years of experience delivering urgent transport solutions across the UK and into Europe.
As we continue to grow, we're exploring the addition of our first dedicated business development professional to help expand our customer base and shape the future of our commercial function.
The Role
We're looking for a self-motivated sales professional who enjoys winning new business.
This is a genuine new business role - not account management. You'll be responsible for identifying opportunities, opening doors and developing long-term relationships with businesses that rely on same-day/urgent transport.
You'll have the freedom to build your own pipeline while working closely with our operations team to deliver outstanding service.
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.

- Generate new business through cold calling, networking and prospecting.
- Identify opportunities across multiple sectors.

What we're looking for
- Proven B2B business development experience.
- A track record of generating new business - ideally in transport or logistics.
- Confident speaking with senior decision-makers.
- Self-motivated and able to work independently.
- Full UK driving licence beneficial.
Experience within transport or logistics is advantageous but not essential.
