Business Development Manager – Data Sales, Buy Side

£100k–£150k basic + £200k+ OTE | Uncapped Commission | London

A leading financial technology and data business is looking for an experienced Business Development Manager to build and lead its buy-side sales proposition.

This is a genuine hunter role for someone who knows the financial markets, has strong buy-side relationships and is comfortable generating new business through proactive, targeted sales.

The role

You will:

  • Develop the strategy for targeting the buy-side market.
  • Map key firms, decision-makers and opportunities.
  • Build and manage a high-value sales pipeline.
  • Develop new relationships and win new business.
  • Take an established and successful sell-side sales playbook and adapt it for the buy side.
  • Help create a repeatable, scalable buy-side sales process.

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.

Experience with financial data, ETFs or indices would be advantageous, but is not essential. Product knowledge can be taught; proven financial markets sales ability and buy-side relationships cannot.

This is an excellent opportunity for an ambitious salesperson to take ownership of a new market and play a key role in building a significant new revenue stream.
