About the Role
Looking to start your career in sales?
Want a role where you can develop your skills, earn uncapped commission and build a genuine long-term career?
We're recruiting for an ambitious, fast-growing business that's expanding its Leeds sales team and looking for 10 Graduate Sales Executives to join them.
What matters is your attitude, ambition and desire to succeed.
This is a consultative sales role where you'll speak with customers who've already expressed an interest in treatment. No cold calling. No trying to convince people who don't want to hear from you.
Instead, you'll learn how to build rapport, understand customer needs and help them make an informed decision. You'll receive comprehensive training, ongoing coaching and the support you need to develop into a successful sales professional.
If you're motivated by progression, earning potential and working in a high-performance sales environment, this could be the perfect opportunity to launch your career.

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.
