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 is a genuinely varied position, offering exposure to a broad range of project types rather than focusing on a single client sector. The role combines fieldwork, technical reporting and stakeholder engagement, making it ideal for somebody who enjoys both site and office-based work.
Hybrid working is available, typically involving a mix of site work, home working and office attendance throughout the week.
What you'll need to succeed
- Lantra Professional Tree Inspection (PTI) qualification (essential)
- Level 3 or Level 4 Arboriculture qualification
- Previous arboricultural consultancy experience
- Experience undertaking BS5837 surveys and reports
- Sound understanding of tree risk management and arboricultural best practice
- Strong written and verbal communication skills
- Full UK driving licence
Candidates with practical arboricultural experience alongside consultancy experience will be particularly attractive.
The successful candidate will be somebody who enjoys working collaboratively, is keen to continue developing professionally and wants to be part of a supportive team with genuine long-term progression opportunities.
