Uncapped Commission | Accountancy Practice | Excellent Earning Potential
You'll be responsible for winning new clients for an established accountancy practice while developing existing relationships and identifying opportunities to introduce additional services.
What's on Offer?
- Competitive basic salary depending on experience
- Uncapped commission scheme
- Excellent overall earning potential
- Opportunity to build and develop your own network
- Established client base with significant cross-selling opportunities
- Supportive team of experienced accountants behind you

We're working with an established accountancy practice in Woking that's looking for a commercially minded Business Development Manager to help drive its next stage of growth.
This isn't purely a cold new-business role. You'll have two clear opportunities to generate revenue: bringing new clients into the practice and developing existing relationships by identifying where the firm can provide additional support.
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.
