Head of Agent Relationships – Asia (China Focus)
📍 UK based Remote working | Full-time
💰 £45,000 basic + performance-related bonus
🗣️ Fluent Mandarin (spoken and written) essential
Our client is a premium education consultancy, part of a fast-growing international education group, helping ambitious students secure places at the UK's most competitive universities. They're now looking for a commercially driven, Mandarin-speaking sales professional to take ownership of a high-potential area of the business: their agent network across Asia, with a focus on China.
This is a hands-on role with a clear brief: build and scale the network over the next 12–24 months. You'll own the full sales cycle from first contact to close, and have real scope to grow into a wider regional commercial role as the function develops.
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.
What you'll be doing:
- Owning the agent strategy across Asia, with China as the priority market
- Mapping out, prospecting and signing new agents and partners
- Converting inbound enquiries into paying clients
- Tailoring pitches, quotes and proposals to each partner
- Hosting webinars for agents and consulting with the students they refer
- Delivering your quarterly and annual sales targets
- Working closely with the delivery team so every client receives a great service
