You'll work alongside the senior leadership team to accelerate growth, strengthen customer relationships, and build a culture that consistently delivers.
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.
You'll inherit an experienced technical sales organisation and the backing of engineering, marketing and technology teams who understand that complex sales are won through expertise, not price alone.

- Drive new business, strategic account growth and long-term customer partnerships.
- Improve forecasting, CRM adoption and sales performance through clear KPIs.
- Build stronger relationships with key customers, suppliers and internal stakeholders.
- Champion a high-performance culture focused on collaboration, accountability and continuous improvement.
You'll be joining a well-established European technology business with more than 50 years of success, a network of technical centres, and continued investment in innovation, engineering capability and strategic growth. The business combines the agility of an independent organisation with the scale and resources to support long-term career success.
