Service Development Manager - 12 month fixed term contract

About the Role

Ready to shape meaningful customer relationships and influence how services are delivered across the energy sector? Join a team where your leadership and insight improve experiences every day. At EDF, Success is Personal – giving you the freedom to grow your impact, your way.


The Opportunity

As a Service Development Manager over a 12-month fixed term contract, you’ll play a key role in strengthening how we serve Public Sector customers and frameworks, ensuring high-quality operational delivery aligned to business strategy. You’ll influence outcomes that directly enhance customer satisfaction and long-term partnerships, supporting our journey towards An Electric Britain.

This is a hybrid role, with an expectation of attending our Exeter office at least once per month depending on your location, alongside flexible home working. This balance supports collaboration, stakeholder engagement, and meaningful in-person connection while maintaining flexibility.

You’ll work cross-functionally with Sales, Structuring, and Customer Success teams to deliver seamless onboarding and ongoing management. Your ability to identify improvements, resolve challenges, and build trusted relationships will help drive continuous service enhancement and business success.

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.
