The Role: Secure Modern Workplace Growth Lead – Senior Closing role
Base: £85k with uncapped commission – OTE’s expected to be 180k to 200k
Location: London (Hybrid) – 3 days in the office
My client is an established IT Managed Services organisation and top tier Microsoft Partner located in Central London.
We are looking for a senior new business closer and Secure Modern Workplace is at the centre of their FY27 growth plans.
My client has the right strategy and a strong, hard-working team generating meetings and pipeline. What they now need is senior closing experience — to convert their most important opportunities reliably and to lift the capability of the team around them.
As the Secure Modern Workplace Growth Lead, you will personally lead and win our key strategic new-business deals, carry a personal new-MRR target, and coach the wider SMW team. You will help sharpen their proposition and refine their sales process as they scale. This is a rare chance to be the experienced voice in an ambitious, well-run business on a clear path from £11m towards £18m — importing the know-how, confidence and belief a talented team needs to win.
Key Responsibilities
- Personally own and win strategic, new-business SMW deals with UK SMEs — from first meeting through discovery, proposal and close
- Carry a personal quota of £5,000 per month of new recurring revenue (MRR)
- Sell on value and business outcomes — security, productivity and safe AI — in the language of the economic buyer (FDs, MDs, CEOs and founders)
- Land tactical, immediate-need wins (e.g. professional-services engagements) and grow them into full managed-service relationships
- Coach and mentor the wider SMW team, raising their capability through proximity, example and structured coaching
- Help refine the SMW proposition, competitive positioning and end-to-end sales motion — prospecting, discovery, qualification, proposal, objection handling, closing and handover
- Work closely with SDRs, marketing and Revenue Operations to improve conversion, forecasting accuracy and pipeline quality
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.
