About Our Opportunity
Are you looking to work with cars and have a sustainable career? Whilst truly making the world better, fairer and greener for the next generation.
We approximately recycle up to 95% of a vehicle which massively reduces our negative impact on the environment. You will be a key player in making the world a better place by doing this.
Whether you’re mechanically minded, an experienced tyre fitter or you have a passion for upcycling vehicles in your spare time. Then this role will be right up your street!
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
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.
