Sales Development Representative (SDR)
£30,000 Base Salary | £40,000-£45,000 OTE | 2pm Finishes When You Hit Target
What if your first sales role gave you the opportunity to work with businesses like Tesla and Bayern Munich, whilst helping build a brand-new Manchester office for one of Europe's fastest-growing AI-powered technology companies? That's exactly what's on offer.
You'll be joining a global software business whose platform helps companies identify and secure funding for innovation, software development, engineering projects and scientific research. The business has supported customers in securing more than €2 billion in R&D funding and now works with over 2,900 active clients globally across more than 25 industries. The company combines cutting-edge AI technology with real commercial impact, helping organisations unlock significant funding opportunities whilst reducing the complexity and administration involved in the process.
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
- £30,000 starting salary
- £40,000-£45,000 realistic first-year earnings
- 2pm finishes when targets are achieved
- Work with a business whose customers include Tesla and Bayern Munich
- Help companies secure funding for innovation, technology and product development
- 2,900+ active corporate clients globally
- AI-powered technology at the heart of the business
- Free tickets to major sporting events
- Comprehensive 12-week sales training programme
- Clear progression from SDR → Senior SDR → BDE → Management
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.

Why Join Now?
