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.
Experience within Solar PV, battery storage or renewable energy would be advantageous but is not essential.
If you're motivated by winning work, building relationships and being rewarded for the value you create, we'd like to hear from you.
The Role
This is not simply a sales role.
We're looking for someone who can identify opportunities, build lasting relationships and generate profitable work that supports the continued growth of the business.
Initially, your focus will be on developing our electrical contracting side, securing new commercial clients, framework opportunities and repeat business. As our renewables branch grows, you'll also help develop opportunities within the solar and energy sector.
