Relationship Development Lead | £30,000 base, £46,000-£52,000 OTE
This is a phone-based business development role, and it's warm calling: every call is to an existing client, backed by a genuine introduction from a relationship that already exists.
We're saying that in the first line because too many sales adverts hide what the job really is. If you enjoy speaking to business owners all day, opening conversations and creating opportunities, you'll probably love this role. If not, that's absolutely fine, but this won't be the right fit.
The Opportunity:
We're a fast-growing professional services business, and we help our clients grow.
The opportunity already exists. Warm introductions convert at an exceptionally high rate. The challenge isn't demand, it's creating more conversations. That's where you come in.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What You'll Do:
- Call existing clients, always with a warm introduction and a genuine referral, to discuss their growth plans.
- Book business owners into a structured discovery session where one of our directors explores their plans and identifies where we can add value.
- Identify wider commercial opportunities that support the business's growth plans.
- Build relationships with business owners, uncover opportunities and keep accurate records of every interaction.
You'll be working from warm, long-established client lists. This isn't calling random companies from purchased databases. It is a phone role built on high-quality conversations, where consistency wins.
