Are you a Sales Executive or Business Development professional looking to join one of the UK's leading specialists in electrical safety, where you'll receive industry-leading training and manage your own territory?
This is an exciting opportunity to join a market-leading distributor of surge and lightning protection solutions. With over 20 years of success and ambitious growth plans, the business has built an outstanding reputation within the electrical industry and continues to expand as demand for electrical protection products increases across the UK.
In this role, you'll take ownership of the North West territory, developing new business while building long-term relationships with electrical wholesalers, contractors, consultants, and end users. You'll deliver product demonstrations, identify new opportunities, and become a trusted advisor by offering solution-led support backed by full product and industry training.
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.
