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.
We are looking for an inspiring, values-led Chief Executive who can combine strategic vision and commercial judgement with warmth, courage, and humanity. You will be a visible and trusted leader – someone who can bring people together, strengthen sustainability, champion the charity, and ensure that the voices and experiences of those we support remain at the heart of every decision.

Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
Experience within domestic abuse, sexual violence or criminal justice would be valuable, but it is not essential. We are equally keen to hear from outstanding leaders from other sectors who can bring fresh thinking, strong people leadership and a genuine passion for creating lasting change.
