Sales Executive - Sports

As a Sales Executive in the sports industry, you'll play a key role in driving sales and building strong customer relationships across the UK and Europe.

This isn't a traditional hard-selling role. You'll inherit an established customer portfolio, receive warm opportunities, and work with customers who already know, buy from, and trust the brand. The focus is on developing relationships, growing accounts, and helping customers maximize sales opportunities.

The Job

You'll work closely with retailers, distributors, and specialist trade partners across the UK and Europe, becoming their trusted point of contact while helping drive continued business growth. You'll spend time visiting customers, attending trade shows and industry events, presenting new product launches, and supporting partners to maximize performance.

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.
