We’re looking for a commercially driven Business Development Manager to generate new business across multiple sectors, with a first-year sales target of £1m. You will focus on identifying the markets where you can win most effectively, build relationships with decision-makers, lead the full sales cycle and work closely with the internal bid team to secure tenders and contract awards.

Key responsibilities Prospect, qualify and close new business to achieve a first-year target of £1m. Own the full sales cycle: lead generation, tendering, proposal development, negotiations and mobilisation. Target multiple sectors and develop a focused sector approach aligned to commercial strengths. Collaborate with the dedicated bid team and operations to produce compliant, competitive submissions and ensure smooth mobilisation of wins. Manage client relationships and handover to operations to drive retention and growth.

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.
