New Business Pre-Sales Consultant

As a New Business Pre-Sales Consultant, supporting our new business sales, you’ll work alongside experienced colleagues to contribute to customer engagements and be involved in helping to deliver assessments, discovery workshops, and early-stage solution design. You’ll assist in translating customer needs into clear, tailored recommendations and play a key part in demonstrating the value of our technology offerings.

This is a great opportunity for someone looking to build their experience in technical pre-sales, with hands-on involvement in a wide variety of customer scenarios and close collaboration with both technical and sales teams. This is a hybrid role based in our Manchester Spinningfields office.

Your Key Responsibilities

  • Lead technical discovery sessions, assessments, and workshops to understand customer challenges and requirements.
  • Assist in developing tailored solutions by mapping customer needs to our service offerings.
  • Deliver compelling presentations and demonstrations that showcase the value of our managed services and technology solutions.
  • Support the sales team with pre-sales activities, including proposal creation, RFP responses, and technical documentation.
  • Act as a trusted advisor to customers, guiding them through technology decisions and best practices.
  • Stay up to date with emerging industry trends, managed services, and best practices to ensure relevant recommendations.
  • Collaborate with internal teams, including sales, engineering, and service delivery, to align technical solutions with business objectives.
  • Contribute to the continuous improvement of our pre-sales processes and methodologies.

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.
