Join Freedom Bridge
Freedom Bridge is looking for an experienced and well-connected Business Development Manager to help drive growth across our construction network.
This is an exciting opportunity for someone with a strong industry reputation who can bring an existing network of contacts and opportunities to the table. We’re looking for someone who has a genuine passion for building relationships and helping clients win more work.
About the Role
You’ll work closely with construction businesses to understand their capabilities, connect them with the right people at the right time, and help them secure the tenders and projects that best suit their expertise.
At Freedom Bridge, we believe that by truly understanding what our clients do exceptionally well, we can create long-term partnerships, generate repeat business, and build a network based on trust and recommendations.
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.
