Scottish Autism’s vision is an inclusive world where difference is embraced and autistic people thrive.

Two new trustees are needed to strengthen and contribute to our existing board and support our management team, in realising our charitable objectives and strategic priorities.
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 welcome applications from autistic people and/or people with lived experience.
