My key client is seeking an experienced Sales Manager to lead commercial growth, manage key customer relationships, and drive new business development.

  • Monitor market trends, competitor activity, and customer needs to inform commercial decision-making.

  • Represent the Company at trade shows, customer meetings, and industry events, including travel within the UK and occasionally overseas.
  • Work collaboratively with operations, technical, and finance teams to ensure customer commitments are delivered.
  • Maintain accurate records of sales activity, pipeline, and customer information.
  • Uphold the Company's health and safety policies at all times, including when working on customer premises.

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.
