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.
We work in a fast-paced dynamic environment where we focus on quality of output, project delivery and client satisfaction. Current projects include:
- Edinburgh's Garden District and Meadowbank in Edinburgh
- Drumchapel and Tollcross in Glasgow
- Findrassie and Pinewood in Moray and Aberdeen
Amongst many other short and long term strategic projects across Scotland. Our work is incredibly varied and can involve working on a development of flats in the city one week and a masterplan for a strategic urban expansion the next.

Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
