Business Development Manager

Company Description:

They have an exciting opportunity for a Business Development Manager – Financial Services to join their team.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone looking to join a team that places a strong emphasis on both personal and professional development.

This role would suit a motivated, coachable individual with the hunger to succeed and the desire to develop into a high performing sales professional.

The Role:

They are seeking a Business Development Manager to drive new business acquisition within Financial Services such as Lending, Insurance, Credit etc.

  • Seek new prospective merchants and introducers proactively, promoting the benefits of a range of products and services
  • Identify key challenges for merchants and partners and offer solutions by applying the correct range of products and services, whilst sustaining profitable terms
  • Use existing industry networks within Financial Services to generate qualified opportunities
  • Develop and maintain deep vertical expertise in target industries, staying current with market trends, regulatory changes, and competitive landscape
  • Qualify opportunities based on profitability potential, risk profile, and strategic fit
  • Build business cases and ROI models demonstrating value proposition to prospects
  • Negotiate commercial and contractual terms with full support available from Line Manager and Department Director
  • Manage onboarding and the initial aftercare of new customers until ready to be migrated to an Account Manager
  • Work closely with product, project management and marketing to create a value proposition
  • Regularly update the CRM system for the purpose of accurate reporting, forecasting and pipeline management
  • Represent the business at trade events where required

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.
