Business Development Manager | Financial Services | London

Join a growing international financial services business and play a key role in driving commercial growth.

An established global organisation specialising in international payments and foreign exchange is looking to appoint an ambitious Business Development Manager to join its London team.

With operations across multiple international markets and ambitious expansion plans, this is an exciting opportunity to join a business that combines market-leading technology with a strong reputation for exceptional client service.

The Role

This is a varied commercial role, combining new business development with the management and growth of existing partnerships. You'll be responsible for identifying new revenue opportunities, building long-term client relationships and managing a portfolio of partners to maximise performance.

Working closely with senior stakeholders, you'll have the autonomy to develop your own pipeline while delivering an outstanding experience for both new and existing clients.

Key Responsibilities

  • Identify and win new business opportunities across the target market.
  • Build and manage a pipeline of prospective clients and referral partners.
  • Develop and grow relationships with an existing portfolio of affiliate partners.
  • Maximise revenue opportunities through proactive account management.
  • Deliver tailored presentations and commercial proposals to prospective clients.
  • Manage the full sales cycle from initial outreach through to onboarding.
  • Monitor partner performance and identify opportunities for further growth.
  • Represent the business at industry events, networking opportunities and client meetings.
  • Work collaboratively with internal stakeholders to deliver an exceptional client experience.
  • Maintain accurate CRM records and provide regular pipeline updates.

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.
