About the company

A specialist technology provider within a larger global industrial group, this organisation develops telematics solutions that connect machinery to a central data platform, enabling businesses to monitor equipment location, usage, safety, and performance in real time. Its tools are typically used in environments like warehouses, construction, and equipment rental, helping customers reduce downtime, improve operational efficiency, enhance safety, and make more informed maintenance and fleet management decisions.

About the role

  • Drive proactive sales and business development by identifying new prospects, building relationships, and promoting IoT-based solutions to generate and grow revenue, acting as the primary client contact.
  • Plan and conduct customer visits across sectors such as equipment rental and dealer networks.
  • Monitor the assigned region to identify commercial opportunities and implement actions to convert them into revenue.
  • Maintain high standards in sales operations while staying informed on relevant industry developments.
  • Ensure strong back-office processes and deliver a high-quality customer experience.
  • Build and maintain effective relationships with both new and existing customers, as well as internal sales teams, to support overall sales objectives.
  • Work independently while collaborating closely with regional colleagues and wider sales teams, reporting into a senior regional leader.

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.
