Trainee Account Executive (HF13497112)

Entry-Level Account Executive

£27,000 - £30,000 Base Salary + Uncapped Commission

Are you a people person?

Do you love meeting new people, building relationships, and being the person others naturally gravitate towards? If so, this could be the perfect opportunity to kick-start your career.

We're working with a leading name in their industry who are looking for ambitious, personable individuals to join their team as an Entry-Level Account Executive. No previous sales or account management experience is required – we're far more interested in your personality, communication skills, and willingness to learn.

Whether you've just graduated from university or are looking for your first professional role, this is an opportunity to join a company that will invest in your development and provide a clear path for progression.

What does an Account Executive do?

Unlike the stereotypical image of hard-selling, this role is all about people.

You'll be responsible for building and developing relationships with clients, understanding their needs, and ensuring they're getting the best possible experience. You'll become a trusted point of contact, helping businesses solve problems and achieve their goals.

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.
