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.
What We're Looking For
- An energetic and resilient sales professional who enjoys opening new doors
- A natural relationship builder with strong commercial instincts
- Someone who thrives on creating opportunities rather than waiting for them
- Experience from the transport industry, specifically with Air, Ocean and/or temperature-controlled transport
Success in this role comes from curiosity, persistence, and a passion for winning new business. If that's you, let's talk.

- Work-life balance that works: Enjoy 25 days of holiday plus bank holidays, with the flexibility to work remotely when agreed with your manager.
- Wellbeing first: Start your day with our free wellbeing breakfast, stay active with a discounted gym membership, and benefit from a cash back health plan.
- Invest in your future: We support long-term security through our company pension scheme and the opportunity to apply for a sabbatical after qualifying service.
