Job Title: Desk Sales Professional (Mid-Market)

Req ID: 61836

Job Function: Sales and Commercial

Posting Start Date: 19/08/2026

Division: UK Business

Job Location: GBR-Birmingham-Three Snowhill

Advertised Salary: Competitive

Location: Birmingham

AI Interview: Due to high number of applications, we're using an AI platform to assist with screening applications. This will involve a 20-25 mins interview via a chat platform, after which you will immediately receive feedback based on your responses. All applications will be reviewed by a recruiter, and you'll be informed whether or not you've been progressed to the next stage - meeting the hiring manager.

About The Role

This is a desk-based sales role focused on managing and growing a portfolio of mid-market customers (typically 50–249 employees). You’ll own a defined account base of around 100 business customers, building strong relationships, identifying opportunities, and proactively selling BT solutions that help customers grow and operate more effectively.

This is a hands-on, phone-led sales role where success comes from strong engagement, consistent activity, and ownership of your pipeline and targets. You’ll work with customers end-to-end — from relationship building and active selling through to renewal, upsell, and ongoing account management.

Mid-Market sits at a strategic sweet spot — large enough to sell meaningful, complex solutions, but agile enough to avoid enterprise-level bureaucracy. You’ll have direct access to decision-makers, faster sales cycles, and the opportunity to see real impact from the relationships you build.

You’ll be trusted to run your own accounts, supported by strong, visible leadership, regular coaching, and a team culture that values performance, resilience, and collaboration.

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.
