Business Development Manager | Midlands | Hybrid

I'm working with a well-established, ambitious law firm that is investing heavily in growth and looking to appoint a Business Development Manager to help drive the next phase of its expansion.

This is a true business development role focused on winning new clients, developing relationships with owner-managed businesses, building networks across the region and identifying opportunities to increase revenue. You'll work closely with partners to shape growth plans, generate leads and strengthen existing client relationships through cross-selling and strategic account development.

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.
