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.
The role: This is a varied position, giving you the opportunity to assist with basic food preparation, set up the different venues within the School’s large estate, serve food, operate dishwashers, and support colleagues with other duties at busy times.
The skills: You will have warm, welcoming and enthusiastic customer service skills, with the ability to respond politely and willingly to assist customers, staff and colleagues. You will enjoy working in different venues and different events, using your eye for detail to notice when things need doing, and your initiative to take responsibility for providing a smooth and efficient service.
The Benefits Include
- free parking
- automatic enrolment in the School’s pension scheme
- use of the School’s sports facilities such as the swimming pool, gym, and running track.
- subsidised membership of the tennis, golf, angling and social clubs.
