Technical Sales Manager – Water & Wastewater
£50,000–£60,000 basic | Bonus up to 10% | Company car or allowance | Home based | UK-wide territory
You already know how wastewater projects work. Now imagine being the person who wins them.
We’re recruiting for an established UK manufacturer of engineered water storage, wastewater treatment and liquid containment solutions. The business is looking for someone to develop opportunities with water companies, framework contractors and consultants across the UK.
You may already be selling technical solutions into wastewater frameworks. Or you may be an internal salesperson, engineer or project manager who understands these projects and is ready to take the lead with customers. Both backgrounds are of interest.
This role gives you ownership of an opportunity from the first enquiry through to the proposed solution, quotation, order and project handover. You’ll have support from technical, design and operational colleagues, alongside the freedom to build relationships and develop business nationally.
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.
