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.
What You Will Do
- Build the go-to-market playbook by testing marketing channels, outbound sales motions, and trial structures to refine how the company wins customers.
- Own customer proposals end-to-end, including qualifying opportunities, building ROI cases, coordinating technical engineering input, and managing deals through to signed contracts.
- Systematically automate commercial and operational processes using AI and workflow tools like Claude and n8n to ensure the company scales efficiently.
The ideal candidate
- Has 1–3 years of experience in a high-intensity environment such as a startup, management consulting, finance, or commercial operations.
- Demonstrates a practical, action-oriented mindset with the ability to navigate ambiguity and move seamlessly between strategy and site-based execution.
- Is a fast-learning generalist who is confident using AI tools to amplify their output and building trust with factory owners and operators.

We never post fake jobs
This isn't a trick. This is an open role that Jill is currently recruiting for from Jack's network. Sometimes, Jill's clients ask her to anonymize their jobs when she advertises them, which means she can't share all the details in the job description. We appreciate this can make them look a bit suspect, but there isn't much we can do about it.
Give Jack a spin!
You could land this role. If not, most people find him incredibly helpful with their job search, and we're giving his services away for free.
