About Build Circle

Build Circle is a dynamic, fast-growing technology consultancy dedicated to solving complex business problems through elegant, user-centric, and scalable digital solutions. We partner with established enterprises and ambitious disruptors alike, helping them navigate digital transformation, optimise operations, and create new revenue streams. We thrive on rapid iteration, deep collaboration, and measurable impact. As a small, agile team, we offer the opportunity for every individual to have a significant, direct influence on both our clients' success and the future of Build Circle.

Our Philosophy

We believe in the power of ownership, ingenuity, and relentless client focus. Our philosophy is rooted in:

  • Entrepreneurial Spirit: Every team member is encouraged to think like a founder, identifying opportunities, challenging the status quo, and driving results.
  • Embracing Ambiguity: We operate in complex, often undefined spaces. Our strength lies in turning uncertainty into clear, actionable strategies.
  • Deep Partnership: We don't just deliver projects; we embed ourselves with our clients, taking true ownership of their problems and co-creating robust, long-term solutions.
  • Agile & Flexible Execution: In a rapidly changing digital landscape, adaptability is our core competitive advantage. We prize flexibility and cross-functional collaboration.

Why Build Circle?

Joining Build Circle means becoming an integral part of a company where your contributions are immediately visible and impactful. You will have the autonomy to build your own book of business, shape client engagements, and grow your accounts — backed by a high-caliber team committed to excellence and innovation. For a driven salesperson, this is a rare opportunity to directly influence your own earnings and the trajectory of a growing consultancy. If you are ready to hunt, own a portfolio, and drive genuine partnership, we want to hear from you.

Key Responsibilities

I. Outbound Sales and Business Development (Hunter-Led)

  • Outbound Prospecting: Proactively identify and pursue net-new business through targeted outreach — including direct prospecting, executive networking, LinkedIn engagement, industry events, referral channels, and partner introductions. You do not wait for leads to come to you.
  • Territory & Market Development: Define and own your target market segments and account lists. Map whitespace opportunities, research ideal client profiles, and build structured outbound campaigns to penetrate new enterprise accounts.
  • Revenue Generation: Own and exceed quarterly and annual revenue targets by identifying, qualifying, and closing new opportunities within both new and existing enterprise accounts.
  • Relationship Building: Develop and maintain deep, strategic relationships with C-level executives, VPs, and key stakeholders, positioning Build Circle as their indispensable technology partner.
  • Opportunity Shaping: Work collaboratively with our solutions and technical teams to craft compelling, tailored proposals and statements of work (SOWs) that address specific client challenges.
  • Pipeline Management: Build and manage a robust self-generated sales pipeline from initial outreach through contract negotiation and deal closure using our CRM. You are accountable for the health and volume of your own pipeline.

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.
