About the Role
We are looking to grow our sales team……. This is not for you.
Okay, let me level with you, we're not looking for normal, whatever normal means. If you think we're looking for somebody to work 9 till 5 who doesn't get excited at the little things, who doesn't really understand the culture, who doesn't understand how exciting bringing data to life can be in service delivery then to be honest we're not interested in you.
About Contego
Contego; we’re a pest control company. Now you might think, yeah anybody can sell pest control and I'm sure they can. But that's not what we do; pest control is the ‘service’ provided. What we do is deliver risk reduction. We focus on first time fix. We produce quality reporting that allows customers to make key decisions quickly in order to reduce risk on the sites... That's what we do.
What We Need
We need people who can proactively go out there and engage with customers. Be passionate about pest control and knowledgeable (we can support and teach you that bit). Be passionate about what we deliver. Be passionate about understanding customer needs and overdelivering what we promise.
- You will be a people person. There's absolutely no place in this company for people who don't like to make phone calls, who don't like to knock on doors, who don't like to engage with their colleagues.
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.
Now this might just be about the most random job advert you've ever seen but, that's what it's supposed to be. It's supposed to be raw and real. It's written today by Mike Taylor, CEO. I founded this company back in 2004 now working our fantastic team across the UK. We're really growing fast with the focus of being the most trusted pest control businesses in the UK.

The Job

Locations
So where is the job? We'd like somebody in the M62 corridor, and we'd like somebody in the London area, but we don't really mind the exact location too much because you'll be a go getter… you’ll be a “I just jump in the car and win business” kind of person…
Support and Resources
We’ve got everything you need to be able to push on, no excuses. We've got the expertise like no other, a strong team in marketing producing socials, video, print, content. We have expertise across all platforms. We will help you to understand how to engage with customers online, but you’ll still need to be picking up the bloody phone.
Next Steps
If you’ve read this far and you’re intrigued, drop me a DM on here and let me know why you’re the right person for the job.
Contego is about customers and customer relations, so you really can sell to whomever you want. People have key accounts of course but, overall, we're not going to restrict you, and we're not going to restrict your earnings potential – only you can do that.
Think you’d fit right in here? Then you know what to do.
