About The Role
XE is a global currency business helping millions of people and businesses access the currencies that matter to them.
This is more than a standard business development role.
It's a high-impact opportunity for ambitious sales professionals who want to step into a role that combines outbound prospecting, qualification and real discovery. You'll be opening new relationships, understanding how businesses manage foreign exchange, and creating high-quality opportunities for XE's Dealing Team.
You don't need FX experience to succeed here. What matters most is attitude, drive and a genuine willingness to learn. If you have strong sales fundamentals, resilience and the hunger to step up, this could be the next stage in your career.
What You'll Do
As a Business Development Representative at XE, you'll sit at the front of new business growth. You will:
- Prospect into high-quality target lists and open new sales conversations
- Run strong qualification and discovery calls to understand each prospect's FX needs and commercial fit
- Clearly communicate the features, advantages and benefits of XE's corporate services
- Close and onboard new clients
- Maintain accurate CRM records and pipeline data
- Contribute ideas and feedback to improve campaigns and sales performance
Reasons to use Rodeo
Iβm in my final year doing Economics and I donβt know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer β it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) donβt need a masters. Letβs look at the ones youβd 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 β that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
