WELLINGTON MANAGEMENT

Wellington Management offers comprehensive investment management capabilities that span nearly all segments of the global capital markets. Our investment solutions, tailored to the unique return and risk objectives of institutional clients in more than 50 countries, draw on a robust body of proprietary research and a collaborative culture that encourages independent thought and healthy debate. As a private partnership, we believe our ownership structure fosters a long-term view that aligns our perspectives with those of our clients.

The Position

We are currently seeking to recruit an experienced Business Development Manager to join the European Client Group, and to lead the firm’s business development activities with Institutional & Wealth prospects and clients in the Netherlands. This individual will play an important strategic role in driving growth across Wellington’s full product suite with pension funds, public institutions, wealth intermediaries, and insurance companies in the market. The role will either be situated in the Netherlands, or in London, or in another Wellington European hub.

Responsibilities

Core Responsibilities will include:

  • Developing and executing the firm’s sales strategy with Institutional, Wealth and Consultant prospects and clients in the Netherlands;
  • Driving growth across the firm’s range of investment strategies, in line with business priorities;
  • Developing successful long term relationship with strategic partners, in partnership with Relationship Management colleagues;
  • Contributing to the development of wider industry relationships;
  • Partnering closely with Marketing and PR colleagues to ensure that local marketing and sales strategies are closely aligned, and contributing to the continued growth in brand awareness;
  • Providing guidance and direction to Relationship Analysts;
  • Ensuring compliance with evolving regulatory requirements.

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.
