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.
Your Big Role: The Assistant Manager Snapshot
- Take command: Step up when the General Manager is away—run shifts, mentor teams, reinforce our culture & values.
- Master the mission: Lead Zizzi’s signature customer service (it’s all about those key ingredients!) and train your team to deliver our best.
- Menu maven: Make sure every plate is perfection—become an expert in our Italian cuisine.
- Drive revenue: Support the GM with financial targets and business growth.
- Present shed: Make sure the restaurant is always ‘Looking Fabulous’ (neat, clean, and inviting).
Why Zizzi? Our Values Define Us
We don’t just run a business—we build a family with heart. Our core values drive everything:
Growth
"Yesterday wasn’t good enough." We’re a learning planet. Laissez your potential grow—both for you, the team, and the world through our actions.
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
Individuality
"You’re wonderfully weird—so are we." Stand out your way. We champion diversity, inclusivity, and authenticity (because the best teams are like a flavour menu: bold, complex, and delicious).
Drive
"Do more. Smash it. Move mountains." No lazy shortcuts. Push boundaries, motivate others, and face the chaos head-on.
Togetherness
"Rock bottom (is where you start to climb together)." Tough times unite us. Fun times too. We’ve got each other’s backs—always.
Fun
"Great food, but don’t forget to laugh." Yes, we take goals seriously. No, we won’t take life seriously (unless you’re screaming like a meltdown ‘pizza day dessert crisis’).
Final Note:
#AlwaysWe. Magic happens, calls are delivered, crew meals are cherished, craziness is managed. You’ll be in a business where we’ve got your back—and left it’s plentiful!
