Relationship Manager – SME Business Banking (Norfolk & Suffolk)

Relationship Manager (SME Business Banking)

We are looking for an experienced Relationship Manager to join our SME Business Banking team, supporting businesses across Norfolk and Suffolk.

In this role, you'll manage a portfolio of established SME clients with turnovers between £2 million and £15 million, helping them achieve their business goals while delivering an outstanding customer experience.

Key Responsibilities

  • Manage a portfolio of 50–70 SME clients, identifying opportunities for growth and strengthening existing relationships.
  • Deliver exceptional customer service and build long-term client partnerships.
  • Generate new business and develop referral opportunities through local networks.
  • Represent the business within the local community and build relationships with professional introducers.
  • Work with specialist product teams to provide tailored banking solutions.
  • Ensure all activities comply with credit, regulatory and risk management requirements.

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.
