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.
Through a consistent and compelling communications strategy, the postholder will help build awareness, reputation and stakeholder engagement.
As part of a collaborative team, the postholder will also provide support to the admissions function, particularly during peak periods and staff absence, ensuring a seamless and welcoming experience for prospective families.
The successful candidate will contribute to the delivery of a high-quality marketing service that promotes the school, strengthens relationships with current families and supports student recruitment and retention. The appointment is expected to commence in September 2026.
