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.
Requirements
- Experience in a customer-facing or sales role — retail, hospitality, door-to-door, or B2B sales are all relevant backgrounds
- B2B or business development experience is a plus but not essential — we will provide full training
- Strong communication skills in English, both written and verbal
- Confident presenting to and engaging with business owners and decision-makers
- Good time management and the ability to work independently and stay motivated
- Professional, honest, and reliable in every client interaction
- No background in digital marketing or software required — we will train you on everything

Earning Potential
- Realistic full-time earnings of £30,000–£60,000+ per year, with uncapped potential beyond that.
- Clients 1–5 per month: 20% commission per sale
- Client 6 onwards in the same month: 30% commission per sale
- Recurring income: 10% of retainer value every month the client stays active
- Your recurring income compounds over time. Close consistent clients and your monthly earnings grow even without new sales.
Growth Potential
This role starts as self-employed and commission-only, but we are building something long-term. Representatives who perform consistently and demonstrate the right attitude will be considered for a permanent, salaried position within the Crimson Digital team as the agency grows. This is a genuine opportunity to grow with us from the ground floor.
