We're recruiting on behalf of an exciting and fast-growing client looking for a motivated and enthusiastic Sales Development Representative (SDR) to join their Manchester team.
This is a fantastic opportunity for someone at the beginning of their sales career who is eager to learn, develop commercial skills, and progress within a supportive and ambitious environment.
If you're driven, confident speaking with people, and excited by the idea of building a successful career in sales, we'd love to hear from you.

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.
