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.

What you'll bring to the role
Our work is rewarding but can be challenging, so resilience is key. No two days are the same! Your natural empathy will help you support others through both the highs and lows.
You will be a creative individual who has experience working within a similar environment. As such, you will have developed the necessary knowledge and skills to be able to contribute ideas to develop home activities. Ideally, you will also have a full UK driving license for a minimum of 3 years.
Educated to GCSE/O-Level standard (A–C) or holding a relevant NVQ Level 2, the role requires experience gained within a related clinical or therapeutic environment.
