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.
This would be suited to you if...
- You have basic Accounting experience, ideally in Accounts Payable
- You have experience with SAP (essential)
- You’re comfortable working in a high-pressure, fast-paced environment
- You’re organised, detail-focused, and able to manage priorities
It would be even better if…
- You have experience dealing with suppliers
- You have a basic working knowledge of Excel
