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.
Your Role
- Prepare fresh, nutritious, and appetising meals for residents
- Cater for dietary needs (e.g. soft diets, allergies, diabetic requirements)
- Maintain high standards of hygiene and kitchen safety
- Manage stock and minimise waste
- Engage with residents to enhance their dining experience
What We’re Looking For
- Previous Chef experience
- Food Hygiene Certificate (Level 2 or above)
- Understanding of dietary needs (care setting experience is a plus)
- Reliable, caring, and team-focused attitude
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
Why join us?
- No out-of-hours working - no late nights or unsociable hours
- Free meals on shift
- Free on-site parking
- Paid DBS check
- Ongoing training & development opportunities
- Supportive, friendly working environment
Enjoy a better work-life balance in a role where you can still be creative and passionate about food — without the pressure, long nights, or unpredictable hours of the hospitality industry.
