Key Account Manager Opportunity
An excellent opportunity has arisen for a Key Account Manager to join a successful sales team covering the Ledbury (Herefordshire) region. In this client-facing role, you’ll be responsible for managing a portfolio of high-value commercial accounts across sectors such as agriculture, transport, and industrial heating. Balancing on-the-road relationship building with strategic account development, this is a great position for a results-driven professional.

This full-time position offers a competitive salary, car allowance plus an uncapped quarterly bonus and access to comprehensive benefits.
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.
