Turn employer conversations into real opportunities
You will build relationships with employers and turn them into vacancies and sustainable jobs for Get Set UK participants.
This is a commercially focused role for someone from recruitment, employer engagement or B2B sales who knows how to open conversations, understand business needs and turn relationships into results. Your performance has a direct reward: the role includes a sales bonus of up to £800 per quarter, based on job starts and outcomes. We can teach you the employability context. You need to bring the commercial confidence, organisation and persistence to create opportunities and follow them through.
Before you apply: the essentials
To be considered, your CV and application must clearly demonstrate:
- Experience in recruitment, employer engagement or B2B sales, with evidence of relationships that led to vacancies, placements, sales or other measurable outcomes.
- Evidence of developing and managing multiple employer, client or business relationships, including consistent follow-up and progressing opportunities.
- Evidence of understanding customer needs, influencing decisions and managing expectations professionally.
- Evidence of commitment, reliability and consistently delivering high standards of work.
- Evidence of delivering outcomes, targets, tasks, projects or agreed objectives.
- Ability to explain recent employment history clearly, including gaps or short-term roles during the previous five years.
- Confident working knowledge of Microsoft Office applications, with ability to learn other digital systems.
Your CV should show what you personally achieved, not simply what you were responsible for. Tell us about relationships developed, opportunities created, targets achieved and outcomes delivered.
Useful, But Not Essential
- Experience in employability, skills or a related sector.
- Knowledge of employability programmes and employment support.
The real job
Your job is to develop employer relationships that create genuine employment opportunities.
You will identify and engage employers, understand their recruitment needs and maintain a realistic vacancy pipeline. You represent Get Set UK externally, so credibility matters. Employers need to trust that you understand their business and will put forward people with a realistic chance of succeeding.
Working with colleagues and participants, you will make sensible matches between vacancies and the skills, circumstances and readiness of the people we support.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Not every employer conversation will convert, and not every vacancy will be suitable. You need the judgement to recognise worthwhile opportunities, manage expectations and keep developing relationships when plans change.
You will follow opportunities beyond the introduction, tracking job starts and whether employment is sustained. Alongside employer outreach and meetings, you will maintain accurate CRM records, coordinate with colleagues and follow up consistently.
What Success Looks Like
You build an active employer network that produces genuine vacancies rather than conversations that go nowhere.
Your pipeline is current and credible. Employers receive responsive, professional support, participants are matched thoughtfully, and your records are accurate and compliant.
Ultimately, you can point to people starting and sustaining employment because of employer relationships you developed. The role includes a sales bonus of up to £800 per quarter, linked to job starts and outcomes, so there is a direct connection between the results you deliver and the bonus you can earn.
The working reality
You are operating between employer expectations, participant reality and performance pressure. You will juggle outreach, employer meetings, candidate conversations, CRM administration, internal coordination and outcome tracking.
Employers will change their plans. Opportunities will fall through. Priorities will compete. You need to be comfortable with targets, persistent follow-up and being accountable for impact rather than activity alone.
What You Get
- Sales bonus of up to £800 per quarter, based on job starts and outcomes.
- 25 days' annual leave, increasing with service.
- Vitality health and wellbeing support, including GP services, mental health support and physiotherapy.
- 24/7 Employee Assistance Programme, including up to six counselling sessions a year and legal, financial and debt guidance.
- Workplace pension, with salary sacrifice available subject to eligibility and scheme rules.
- Share buy scheme.
- Up to £360 a year through IncentFit for eligible activities.
- Wellbeing, retail, fitness, travel and mobile discounts, including 20% off eligible EE mobile plans.
