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.
Requirements
- Experience of working within the care sector will be advantageous but a real interest and passion in supporting people with disabilities to live fulfilled lives is essential.
- We provide an extensive training programme including the Care Certificate as well as complex care training.
- The ideal candidate will have a driving license and access to their own vehicle, however, this is not essential as we are looking for a mixture of drivers and non-drivers to join our Service Users team.
