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.
About you
- Minimum Level 2 in Childcare or equivalent
- Strong communication skills
- Ability to build rapport with adults and children in various group sizes
- Naturally outgoing, cheerful, and enthusiastic personality
Note: You'll need to complete a DBS check before starting (we'll help with that).
