Junior Broker / Client Opener
Location: Brentwood, Essex
Employment: Full-time, office-based
Package: Basic salary + performance-related commission
Progression: Junior Broker / Client Opener → Broker
About the Role
As we continue to grow our team in Brentwood, we are looking for ambitious and motivated people who are interested in starting a career in sales and brokerage. This is an entry-level opportunity, and previous sales or brokerage experience is not required.
We are looking primarily for people with the right attitude — individuals who are reliable, hard-working, confident communicating with others, and keen to learn. You do not need any previous knowledge of the whisky market. Full training will be provided across our business, the market, and the skills required to develop within the role.
What You’ll Be Doing
As a Junior Broker / Client Opener, you will work alongside our experienced brokerage team and help develop new client opportunities.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Speaking with prospective clients by telephone
- Following up enquiries and maintaining regular contact with prospects
- Building rapport and understanding client requirements
- Qualifying potential opportunities
- Handling initial questions and objections
- Booking qualified appointments for senior brokers
- Developing your knowledge of the whisky cask market
- Maintaining accurate and up-to-date CRM records
- Working towards agreed individual and team objectives
Your initial focus will be on developing strong communication skills, learning how to manage prospective client conversations, and understanding how the brokerage process works.
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.
As your experience develops, there will be opportunities to take on greater responsibility and progress towards a full Broker position.
Who We’re Looking For
We are not looking for a particular background or a certain type of CV.
Instead, we are interested in people who can demonstrate:
- A positive and professional attitude
- Strong work ethic and reliability
- Confidence speaking with new people
- Good communication and listening skills
- Resilience and persistence
- A willingness to learn and take feedback
- Ambition and a desire to progress
- A commercial mindset and motivation to perform
- The ability to work well within a team
Previous experience in sales, telesales, recruitment, estate agency, customer service, or another client-facing environment can be useful, but it is not essential. For us, attitude and potential are more important than previous experience.
Training and Development
You will receive structured training and ongoing support as you develop within the business.
This will include:
- An introduction to the whisky cask market
- Understanding our brokerage process
- Telephone and client communication
- Lead qualification
- Objection handling
- CRM and pipeline management
- Working alongside experienced members of the brokerage team
We are looking for people who want to develop over the longer term rather than simply step into a short-term sales position.
Earnings and Progression
The role includes a basic salary alongside a performance-related commission structure.
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
As you develop your skills and take on greater responsibility, there is the opportunity to increase both your earnings and your position within the business.
The commission structure and progression pathway will be discussed openly during the interview process so that candidates have a clear understanding of the opportunity before joining.
What to Expect
This is a telephone-based role within a busy sales environment.
You will be speaking with prospective clients regularly, working towards clear objectives, and learning how to deal with conversations that do not always result in an immediate opportunity.
For someone who enjoys communicating with people, wants to develop commercially, and is comfortable working towards measurable goals, it can provide a strong foundation for a career in brokerage.
We do not expect you to arrive as an experienced salesperson. We are looking for people who are prepared to learn, work consistently, and develop.
Interested?
If you are at the beginning of your career, considering a move into sales, or looking for an opportunity where you can develop professionally within a growing team, we would be interested in speaking with you.
No degree required. No previous brokerage experience required. No previous knowledge of whisky required.
If you have the attitude, work ethic, and ambition, we can teach you the rest.
