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.
Our customers rely on us every day.
And our Care Professionals can rely on us too.
You'll have an experienced local management team behind you, ongoing training, regular support and people who are there when you need them.
Your Wellbeing Matters Too
Care is about looking after people – and that includes our team.
You'll Have Access To
- Supportive, approachable local managers
- Regular check-ins and wellbeing support
- Our dedicated Wellbeing Hub
- A Registered CBT-trained Counsellor
- Ongoing learning and development
- Clear career progression opportunities
We want you to enjoy what you do, have a life outside work and see where a career in care could take you.
Never Worked in Care Before?
That's absolutely fine.
We'll provide your training and support you as you learn.
What matters to us is who you are – being reliable, compassionate, interested in people and wanting to make a difference.
Already Work in Care?
Then come and see how we do things differently.
If you're tired of uncertainty around your hours, too much travelling, feeling rushed or wondering where your career is going, we'd like to talk to you.

- Everyday activities
- Maintaining independence
- Getting out and about
- Simply being there when someone needs support
You'll get to know your regular customers and build genuine relationships with them.
It's care that's personal – not just another call on a rota.
