Launch Your Career in Technology Sales
Our client is building the next generation of physical security technology, combining AI-native body-worn cameras with an intelligent, cloud-hosted platform that helps organisations detect risks, capture evidence and respond to real-world incidents.
Following the launch of the UK sales operation, we are looking for several ambitious graduates to join as Sales Development Representative interns.
This is a genuine entry point into a technology sales career. You will receive hands-on training, work closely with experienced members of the business and learn how to identify prospects, open conversations and generate qualified sales opportunities.
The initial internship will last three months. Those who perform strongly may be offered a permanent BDR position with significant pay rise.
What You’ll Be Doing
Your main objective will be to start conversations with prospective customers and book qualified discovery meetings for the sales team.
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.
