Sales Executive / Business Development Manager
Location: South London (hybrid, 3 days in the office)
Salary: Up to £50,000 basic + uncapped commission scheme
At Rockpool, we are thrilled to be working with a prestigious global corporate travel company that has been looking after business travellers for more than 30 years.
This is a business on the move. Their London team is growing fast, and they now need a Sales Executive / Business Development Manager focused purely on professional services clients.
You do not need to have worked in travel. What matters most is your attitude, your drive and a proven track record of winning B2B business. If you have spent a year or so in corporate travel, that would be a real bonus.
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.
What you will be doing:
- Finding and winning new professional services clients
- Building your own pipeline through LinkedIn, networking, events and referrals
- Getting to know what each firm needs from its travel and putting together tailored proposals
- Showing clients a service that puts the traveller experience first, backed by technology built around them
- Working to new business targets, with the freedom to do it your way
What we are looking for:
- A strong B2B sales or business development background, with new business wins to show for it
- Confidence prospecting and building relationships on LinkedIn
- A polished, professional manner with senior decision makers
- Self-motivated and happy to run your own pipeline
- Corporate travel or TMC experience is a bonus, but not essential

What else do I need to know ?
The earning potential is excellent. On top of a basic salary of up to £50,000, commission is uncapped, so the more business you bring in, the more you earn. You will not be micromanaged, and it is a brilliant time to join. You will be based in their South London office 3 days a week and 2 from home. It's a grown up, trusting environment where successful people really flourish.
If this sounds like you, or you know someone who would be a star in this role, we would love to hear from you. Get in touch with Sarah at Rockpool Recruitment for a confidential chat.
