We partner with founders, CROs, and sales leaders to identify, assess, and develop sales talent that delivers genuine commercial impact.

The Role
We are looking for a commercially curious Sales Development Representative (SDR) to join our team in London Victoria.
This role is ideal for someone early in their sales career who wants structured training, daily coaching, exposure to senior decision-makers, and a clear progression path into Business Development.
As an SDR, you will be responsible for generating and qualifying new business opportunities, engaging with senior decision-makers, and booking high-quality meetings for the Business Development team.
You'll work alongside experienced professionals across sales, recruitment, and commercial strategy, learning directly from people who work with founders and C-suite teams every day.
Key Responsibilities
- Identify and research prospective client companies within target markets.
- Engage senior decision-makers through phone, email, LinkedIn, and other outbound channels.
- Generate new business opportunities through proactive prospecting.
- Qualify inbound and outbound leads against clear criteria.
- Book high-quality meetings with Founders, CROs, Sales Directors, and other senior stakeholders.
- Conduct initial discovery conversations to understand client growth plans, commercial objectives, and hiring challenges.
- Develop strong knowledge of Flourish's proposition and communicate its value effectively.
- Manage prospect activity, conversations, and pipeline accurately within the CRM.
- Work closely with senior team members to refine messaging and improve conversion rates.
- Take part in daily coaching, call reviews, role plays, and sales development sessions.
- Consistently work towards and exceed agreed activity, meeting, and pipeline targets.
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.
