About the Role
We are looking for an experienced Business Development Manager to help grow two established businesses serving the construction and property sectors.
Excel Fire provides passive fire protection, fire door inspections and installations, fire stopping and other fire safety services. Excel Exteriors delivers roofing, waterproofing, groundworks, electrical works and planned and reactive maintenance.
This is an opportunity to develop relationships on behalf of both companies. We already work with multiple main contractors and other major clients. We now want someone who can strengthen those relationships, introduce us to the right new clients and turn opportunities into profitable, deliverable work.
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.
