Business Development Manager - Corporate FX & Payments
Department: Revenue
Employment Type: Permanent - Full Time
Location: London
Reporting To: Andrew Perris
Description
We're one of the fastest-growing divisions in a well-established global payments business and we're looking for a high-performing, motivated superstar to help shape what comes next.
This is a front-line, client-facing role. You'll win new corporate clients, build lasting relationships with CFOs and treasurers, and act as a trusted adviser on FX strategy, currency risk, and international payments. If you're energized by targets and genuinely enjoy the hunt for new business, you'll fit right in.
What you'll do
Win new business
- Prospect, cold-call, and network your way to a strong pipeline of qualified corporate leads.
- Build relationships with senior finance stakeholders — CFOs, treasurers, and finance directors — and understand their FX needs well enough to deliver solutions that actually work.
- Take deals from first conversation to signed contract, managing objections and adapting proposals along the way.
- Support a smooth client onboarding onto our platform.
Think strategically
- Identify target markets, track the competitive landscape, and stay sharp on industry developments that affect us.
- Work with marketing and product to make sure your sales approach and theirs are pulling in the same direction.
Own your numbers
- Hit weekly, monthly, and annual revenue targets through disciplined pipeline management.
- Keep CRM records accurate and up to date — and use the data to course-correct, not just report.
- Track conversion rates and pipeline health; flag issues early.
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.
