We’re partnered with one of the UK’s most recognised energy and infrastructure organisations, supporting the expansion of their ICP and multi-utility offering across the industrial and commercial sectors.
With significant investment behind their infrastructure arm, this is a business that is scaling rapidly, winning major developer-led projects, and strengthening its presence across the UK’s critical utilities landscape.
They’re now looking to bring on a Business Development Manager (ICP / Multi-Utilities) to drive new client acquisition and strategic growth.
🧩 The Role
As Business Development Manager, you will take full ownership of new business generation across ICP and multi-utility services. This is a true hunter role - focused on opening doors, building relationships, and converting opportunities within developer, infrastructure, and construction-led environments. You will manage the full sales lifecycle, from prospecting and early engagement through to proposal, negotiation, and contract award. Partnering closely with technical and delivery teams, you’ll ensure a smooth transition from sale to execution.
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.
