Reporting to the MD of Europe, you will be responsible for the business development efforts in one of our geographic regions (UK and EU). This is a critical role that requires the right balance of sales prospecting, strategic thinking, comfort with buying conversations, and a strong roll-up your sleeves ‘get it done’ mentality.

Some of the things you’ll be doing include:
- Interfacing with in-bound leads to understanding potential avenues for us to integrate our solutions to add value to organizations in their talent development efforts.
- Understand our simulation and leadership programs and be able to speak confidently about how they can be used in virtual and in-person training settings.
- Creatively find ways to interact with potential buyers of our simulation by adding value through email, social media, networking events and other channels to drive additional conversations for our organization in your region.
- Attend industry conferences, both in-person and virtual to build relationships with key decision makers at organizations that are in the market for leadership development programs.
- Work closely and collaboratively with our client experience team to ensure that our key client contacts feel that their needs are being met at all stages of their journey with Abilitie.
- Develop a broad understanding of the market landscapes and identify key areas of competitive difference and disruptive opportunities.
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.
