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.
That means you'll need to be happy travelling between locations during your working day depending on where our clients need support.
This flexibility is an important part of the role, so we'll talk to you about the area, your availability and the travel involved during the recruitment process.
What You'll Be Doing
You'll visit clients in their own homes and provide personalised support that helps them remain safe, comfortable and as independent as possible.
Your Visits Could Include
- Companionship and conversation
- Personal care and helping clients get ready for their day
- Preparing meals and supporting with medication
- Shopping and light household tasks
- Accompanying clients to appointments or activities
- Encouraging independence and wellbeing
- Following individual care plans and recording the support you provide
What we're looking for
Previous care experience is welcome, but it isn't essential. We'll provide the training and support you need.
You'll Need To Be
- Caring, patient and compassionate
- Reliable and comfortable working independently
- A good communicator
- Available during the week and on alternate weekends
- Comfortable travelling between Lewes and Brighton to support clients
- A full UK driving licence holder with access to your own car
- Eligible to work in the UK
