Who are IDHL?

At IDHL, we're more than a digital agency, we're a strategic partner to ambitious brands, helping them accelerate growth in the digital economy.

Our expertise spans performance marketing, web, eCommerce, data and intelligence, helping brands navigate complexity and achieve meaningful growth.

We're also home to Fostr, Vervaunt, and The MTM Agency, bringing together specialist expertise from across the digital landscape.

What connects it all is our focus on outcomes, not just outputs. We back each other, take pride in what we do, and make sure the way we work works for everyone.

Business Development Manager

Role Overview

We're looking for a talented and self-motivated Business Development Manager to join our Web & eCommerce team.

In this role, you'll be responsible for identifying, developing and closing new business opportunities across our Web & eCommerce products and services. Working with both inbound enquiries and proactive business development activity, you'll play a key role in driving commercial growth and building long-term client relationships.

This is an excellent opportunity for a commercially minded sales professional looking to make a real impact, with strong earning potential through a lucrative uncapped commission scheme and the chance to be building relationships, creating opportunities and delivering results in a fast-paced digital environment.

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.
