Business Development Manager - UK

About Bob W I’m Bob W, your friend in town. I take the guesswork out of travel, blending the best of both worlds: hotel-grade consistency, local character, and a few surprises only locals would know. Every apartment is fully carbon-offset and set up in Europe’s most interesting neighbourhoods, so you feel at home — just with better coffee and smarter tech. I’m building a new kind of stay: five-star comfort, local flair, and always a step ahead on sustainability. All you have to do is show up. I’ll handle the rest.


The Role

Job Title: Business Development Manager

Description: The role of the Business Development Manager is to elevate Bob W’s performance in the UK, with a focus on London, through identifying, prospecting, securing, managing, and growing corporate accounts. This pivotal position is an integral member of our growing B2B Sales Team.

You are an experienced sales professional who can:

  • Leverage your existing network of travel buyers in the UK.
  • Establish Bob W as the preferred accommodation provider in the area.

As a self-starter, you possess the initiative to independently cultivate and foster relationships. Your approach is strategic, leading to profit-able revenue generation and fostering strong brand loyalty

As a vital member of our Commercial Organisation, you’re part of an international team focused on customer acquisition, retention, growth, and revenue organisation.

Note: Visa sponsorship is not offered for this role; candidates must already hold a valid work permit for the UK.

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.
