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.

The Opportunity
As Business Development Manager, you’ll take ownership of the Northern England and Scotland territory, developing relationships with M&E contractors, electrical contractors and key construction businesses. You’ll identify upcoming projects, develop relationships with key decision-makers and influence specifications to secure future opportunities. This is a genuine business development role, with a strong focus on new opportunity generation, specification and contractor engagement, rather than simply managing an inherited customer portfolio.
You’ll have the freedom to manage your own territory and sales strategy while having the support of an established business behind you.
Key Responsibilities
- Develop and build relationships with M&E and electrical contractors.
- Identify new projects and commercial opportunities across the territory.
- Develop relationships with key decision-makers within contractor businesses.
- Influence specifications and secure products into upcoming projects.
- Generate new business and develop previously untapped accounts.
- Grow existing customer relationships and identify additional opportunities.
- Build and manage your own sales pipeline.
- Work closely with internal technical and commercial teams.
- Take ownership of the Northern territory and deliver sustainable revenue growth.
- Develop a strong network across the M&E and construction sectors.

About You
We’re looking for an experienced Business Development Manager or specification-led sales professional with experience within areas such as:
- M&E contractor sales
- Electrical distribution
- Electrical products
- Technical infrastructure products
- Cable, cable management or associated products
You’ll ideally have an established network within M&E or electrical contracting and understand how to identify opportunities, develop relationships and influence projects. You’ll also be someone who is ambitious about their own career and wants to work for a business that can provide development, progression and long-term stability.
A Company You Can Grow With
The successful candidate will be joining a business with an established market position, experienced workforce and long-standing customer relationships. The company invests in its people and provides opportunities for employees to develop their skills, take on greater responsibility and progress internally.
For someone currently working within the sector, this is an opportunity to take the experience and relationships you already have and move into a role offering greater autonomy, strong earning potential, career development and the security of an established global organisation.
If you’re looking for your next move to be more than just another sales job and want to join a business where you can build a successful territory and develop your career for the long term, we’d like to hear from you.
