Start Your Career in Sales
Are you an ambitious self-starter who’s looking for a career where your performance directly impacts your earnings and progression? Have you recently left school, college or university? Maybe you've already shown a commercial mindset by running a small business, selling online, working in customer-facing roles, or finding creative ways to earn money.
If you're confident speaking to people, resilient when things don't go your way, and hungry to learn, we'd like to hear from you.
We're looking for high-potential individuals who want to build a thriving career in sales and develop into future sales leaders.
About Trusted Advisor
Trusted Advisor is a fast-growing fintech start-up helping people access high-quality, regulated financial advice. We help clients looking for financial advice connect and match with financial advisers through our bespoke digital platform.
Launched in 2024, we have grown rapidly and have ambitious plans to continue scaling over the next two years. We currently operate in the UK and UAE, and are taking steps to expand into the US and Canada.
We're a small, high-performance team of eight, meaning you'll have the opportunity to work closely with an experienced leadership team who have been in the industry for over 10 years. For the right person, this role can be the first step towards a long-term career in sales and leadership as Trusted Advisor continues to grow.
The Role
As a Sales Development Associate, you'll be at the front line of our client acquisition process. You'll speak to people who have expressed an interest in financial advice, understand their needs, qualify them, and match them with an appropriate financial adviser on our platform.
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.
This is a high-volume B2C sales role involving warm inbound leads and outbound follow-up calls. You'll have plenty of opportunities to speak to prospective clients, develop your sales skills and directly influence your earnings.

- Managing bookings and responding to queries from clients and financial advisers
- Following up with clients to maximise appointment attendance and engagement
- Working towards individual and team performance targets
- Using coaching and feedback to continuously improve your sales performance
Who We're Looking For
