Business Development Manager

Location: Hybrid – 2 days per month onsite

Salary: £35,000 + Uncapped Commission + Car Allowance

Role Type: Full-time, Permanent

The Role

We’re looking for an ambitious and commercially driven Business Development Manager to join a growing technology solutions business.

This is a purely new business-focused role, where you’ll be responsible for identifying, engaging and winning new clients across a broad portfolio of technology services.

You’ll be selling the business as a complete technology partner, rather than focusing on a single product or service. The offering spans IT, Cyber Security, AV and Software, giving you a strong proposition to take to businesses across a range of sectors.

Key Responsibilities

  • Identify and generate new business opportunities through proactive prospecting
  • Build and manage a strong pipeline of potential clients
  • Conduct outbound calls, emails, LinkedIn outreach and other business development activity
  • Arrange and lead initial client meetings and discovery calls
  • Understand prospective clients' challenges and position the appropriate technology solutions
  • Sell across the full portfolio, including:
    • Managed IT Services
    • Cyber Security
    • Audio Visual solutions
    • Software solutions
  • Develop relationships with key decision-makers, including business owners, MDs, IT Directors and senior stakeholders
  • Manage the full sales cycle from initial prospecting through to closing
  • Achieve agreed revenue and new business targets
  • Maintain accurate pipeline and activity records within the CRM
  • Work closely with internal technical and delivery teams to ensure a smooth handover of new clients

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.
