The role

We are looking for a high-impact Sales Manager to lead a regional team of Account Executives within our Direct Sales organisation. Reporting to the Head of Sales for the region, this is a hands-on leadership role combining team management with direct ownership of strategic Mid-Market and Enterprise new logo opportunities. You will translate commercial strategy into day-to-day execution, build a culture of accountability and continuous improvement, and ensure your Account Executives have the coaching, pipeline discipline, and deal support needed to consistently overperform. You will be equally comfortable running your own complex sales cycles, reviewing team pipeline, and removing blockers to accelerate revenue growth.

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.
