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.
They are energetic and require somebody who understands that communication goes far beyond spoken language.
- Behaviour is generally well managed. This isn't a role centered around significant aggression or crisis behaviour.
- Instead, you'll be helping the child communicate, regulate, engage with their environment, and gradually access more of their school day.
The right person
We're looking for somebody who is warm and nurturing but able to provide structure, boundaries, and consistency.
- Experience in any of the following would be particularly valuable:
- Autism / ASC
- Pre-verbal or non-speaking children
- PECS or visual communication
- Attention Autism
- Sensory regulation
- Speech, language and communication needs
- Early Years or KS1 SEND
- EHCP-led support
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
You don't need experience in every area.
More important is your ability to observe, learn, and understand what a child may be communicating through their behaviour.
This is an opportunity to work consistently with one child and see the impact of your support develop throughout an entire academic year.
Before starting, we can arrange an informal school visit to meet the Deputy Headteacher or a Microsoft Teams conversation with SLT.
The position starts 1 September and will run for the full academic year, with strong potential to continue longer term.
