Sales Development Associate
As a Sales Development Associate (SDA), you should be enthusiastic about learning the fundamentals of sales and generating qualified leads for our sales teams. This role is a precursor to being promoted to a Business Development Representative where you will receive continuing sales education, learn how to prospect for the different selling departments at Park Place Technologies, and gain more insight into all of the products and services we offer our prospective and existing customers. The Business Development Representative role is the step before an account manager role. Time in the Sales Development Associate role is generally 3 to 4 months.
What you’ll be doing:
- Learn about Park Place Technologies, our portfolio of offerings, and how to articulate our value proposition to prospective customers.
- Leverage prospecting techniques such as cold calling, emails, calendar invites, and social media to generate qualified leads and schedule discovery calls for members of our different sales teams.
- Receive training on how to use our sales engagement tools, our customer relationship management system, internal resources, as well as other tools for identifying and engaging potential customers.
- Learn how to build targeted prospecting lists, craft outbound messaging, identify influencers and key decision makers, and discover opportunities for Park Place Technology to earn new and additional business.
- Participate in daily training sessions covering technology, sales skills, and mock prospecting engagements to develop your understanding of our business and how to identify qualified selling opportunities.
- Learn how different parts of the organization work together to support our internal and external customers.
- Develop strong organizational skills and manage your daily activities to achieve defined performance metrics.
- Other duties and activities as assigned.
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.
