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

No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
You will guide students in developing their critical evaluation of key theories and the practitioner’s perspective, and their critical writing skills based on a case study. You will also help them build confidence and capability in their engagement with an evidence-based approach to designing learning interventions, and employees’ training and development needs.
You will bring proven experience of teaching and supporting a diverse cohort of students, along with a Master’s degree (or equivalent qualification) in a Business and Management or Psychology-related subject.
You will be confident in delivering lectures and learning activities that enable students to engage with academic literature, evaluate evidence, and communicate effectively in written work. You will have experience in teaching, or have knowledge of, key topics and theories, relating to Learning and Development.
Additional essential requirements for this role are:
- At least a master’s degree in business and management / psychology related subjects or an equivalent relevant qualification.
- Experience in teaching and supporting students in a seminar context involving small group activities, class discussions, and preparation for group and individual assessments.
- Experience in recording lecture content using the Panopto platform, and in refreshing lecture content to support students’ learning on a module.
- Experience in teaching, or have knowledge of, key topics and theories, relating to Learning and Development.
- Experience in assessing student learning, which for this module will be a coursework report of 1,500 words based on a provided Learning and Development case study. Additionally, students will need to submit a pre-recorded 5–7-minute presentation that is L&D practitioner focused based on their individual coursework report.
