Why Join as Sales Manager Here
A true step into management. This is a pure leadership role. You'll lead a team of 10 Account Executives, and your time goes on coaching, not closing. If you're a strong individual contributor ready to get off the phones and build a team, this is the move.
- Leading a team that already performs. 90%+ of AEs here hit at least their OTE, and top performers clear £100k+. You're inheriting a high-performing, high-earning team, not a turnaround project.
- 100% inbound. Your team never cold calls. Every AE is speaking to prospects who already want to talk, so your coaching goes into conversion, not activity.
- Real earning potential. A base of £45-55k with double-base OTE, tied to a team target of £250k per quarter.
- Room to grow. Promotion here is based on performance, not tenure. Strong managers get exposure to senior leadership as the business scales, particularly in the US.
Ever wanted to run a team at the centre of a buzzing, high-growth scale-up in a genuinely growing sector? We're looking for an ambitious, player-coach-turned-leader to take ownership of our AE team, raise the standard of every call, and drive consistent results in the startup and advisory world.
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'll Be Doing
- Leading, managing and developing a team of 10 Account Executives, all working 100% inbound leads (around 100 demos a month each)
- Owning a team target of £250k per quarter, with accountability for pipeline, forecasting and performance
- Running call coaching: listening to calls, giving structured feedback, and building the skills that move people from good to top-performer
- Running regular 1:1s, pipeline reviews and team meetings that keep the process tight
- Onboarding new AEs and building the pathway for high-performing SDRs to step up into the team
- Working closely with senior leaders and the US team to refine process, messaging and the sales playbook
- Hiring, motivating and, where needed, managing performance to keep the bar high
What Makes You a Great Fit
- A track record of strong sales performance as an AE or senior sales professional, with a record of consistently hitting or beating target
- Some experience leading or mentoring others, whether that's a small team, a team lead role, or informal coaching of junior reps
- A natural coach: you get energy from watching someone else win, and you can explain why a call worked or didn't
- Confident with targets, forecasting and pipeline metrics
- Resilient, commercial and competitive, but a team player first
- No SaaS or tech background required. We care about how you sell and lead, not where you've done it

Why This Team Is Different
- The sector is genuinely growing, the earnings are real (not just headline numbers), and the culture backs up the hype. Think regular socials, brunches, and a team that's as competitive as it is supportive.
- We're small enough that you'll work directly with senior leaders and shape how the sales team operates, which is exposure most management roles don't offer.
