Sales Director
Sales Manager/Director – Print & Retail Solutions
Location: Northumberland / Hybrid / North East Salary: £50,000 – £60,000 Base + Uncapped OTE (£100k+) Car Allowance: Included Position Type: Full-time, Permanent
The Opportunity
Are you a high-performing commercial hunter tired of corporate bureaucracy? Do you crave a direct path to a Board-level position where your career success is driven by your own achievements, not politics?
We’re a well-established, agile print and logistics partner serving some of the UK’s most recognisable retail brands. After strategic investment and growth, we’re seeking an ambitious Sales Manager/Director to lead our commercial expansion.
This is a standalone, high-impact business development role—a chance to build a dedicated sales team and earn the authority to lead it. Your mission: secure substantial retail contracts to justify your own team and financial independence.
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.

Why you're a good match
You’ve got the grades and the economics background, and your bank internship is exactly the experience this scheme looks for. Apply soon — deadlines close within the month.
Experience fit
Your summer at the bank plus your econometrics coursework map directly to the day-one responsibilities on this scheme — client modelling, market briefings, and deal support.
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.
Why This Role Stands Out
- Zero Admin Bottlenecks – Focus exclusively on hunting and closing; an exceptional customer service team handles execution and support.
- Direct Access – Report straight to the CEO. Decisions fast—business won in hours.
- The Path to a True Directorship – If you hit your targets, you’ll earn a Board seat and the budget to scale your team.
What You’ll Do
- Target and win high-value print, point-of-sale (POS), and packaging contracts in retail.
- Leverage your network to engage with procurement, marketing, and operations directors at major brands.
- Collaborate with the CEO to shape commercial strategy and revenue forecasting.
- Develop the future recruitment strategy for your regional sales team once revenue milestones are met.

What We’re Looking For
✔ Retail Sales Expertise – Proven success selling directly into retail (preferably in print, POS, or packaging—though strong results selling other high-volume offerings to retail will suffice). ✔ "Hunter" Mindset – Self-driven, resilient, thriving with full autonomy to build pipelines from scratch. ✔ Leadership Ambition – The commercial acumen, gravitas, and professionalism to step into a Board Directorship as the business scales.
What We Offer
- Base Salary: £50,000 – £60,000
- Profit-Based Commission: Uncapped, with earning potential of £90k+ annual total
- Car Allowance: Included
- Equity & Growth Potential: Earn a directorship if you deliver results.
