Founded in 2006, Centralis is headquartered in Luxembourg and has offices in 13 jurisdictions. Today, Centralis employs over 450 highly experienced, multilingual professionals across all our jurisdictions. Our team has been selected from a diverse background, focusing on financial, investment, and legal professionals with an exemplary client services track record.
Centralis is currently recruiting a Lead Development Executive to support our commercial growth activity. This is a non-quota-carrying role focused on identifying target accounts, finding the right contacts, carrying out first-touch outreach, and booking introductory meetings for senior sales colleagues and subject matter experts.
The successful candidate will be organized, commercially curious, and confident engaging with prospective clients and intermediaries by email and phone. The role is suited to someone with experience in inside sales, telemarketing, sales development, business development support, or B2B prospecting.
Responsibilities:
- Sales & Lead Development
- Research named target accounts, sectors, and markets in line with agreed commercial priorities.
- Identify relevant contacts, including decision-makers, influencers, referrers, and buyer personas.
- Carry out first-touch outreach by email, phone, and LinkedIn where appropriate.
- Qualify early-stage interest and book introductory meetings for sales heads, relationship owners, or subject matter experts.
- Prepare clear handover notes for each qualified meeting, including account context, contact details, outreach history, and potential service relevance.
- Monitor trigger events such as transactions, fund launches, restructurings, new appointments, regulatory changes, or service-provider changes.
- Support cross-sell activity by identifying potential opportunities within existing client or intermediary relationships.
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.
