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.
A Sample of What the Role Involves:
- Client delivery: You will work as a key part of the client-facing team in searches across GTM, Product, Operations, and General Management.
- Research ownership: You will be the go-to for identifying and engaging with top leadership talent, designing and executing on best-in-class approaches to identifying top talent.
- Candidate assessment: You will pitch roles to candidates, and conduct assessments, working closely with Partners/Principals.
- Function-building/internal support: You will be an early team member of a fast-scaling business, playing a key role in shaping how we build our delivery function at JBM.
What We’re Looking For:
- You have some experience in Executive Search, Talent Acquisition, or senior recruitment; a track-record of working on executive-level mandates for Tech Startup/Scaleup clients is nice to have.
- You have strong organizational skills and ability to keep track of multiple workstreams without letting things slip.
- You are a clear, professional communicator, both written and verbal.
- You embrace technology and feel comfortable with tools such as G-Suite, Excel/Sheets, and willingness to learn others (Notion, AI tools, etc.)

- Flexible working: We’re a hybrid firm and typically spend 2 days per week (Wednesdays & Thursdays) in our office on Newman Street to get some much-needed face time and to eat, drink & have fun!
- Unlimited annual leave: Getting a break from work is important so, as long as you give enough warning, we don’t count holidays
