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.

What will you be doing?
We are looking for a skilled writer and researcher to create engaging content for our website. The reports we put on our website help keep people informed about current issues and concerns the countryside faces, and help drive traffic to our page.
You will be responding to ad-hoc requests from members of our team who will come to you with the topics we would like to be covered, but it will be your responsibility to research the information, analyse the data, and compose knowledgeable reports that disseminate sometimes complex issues to our readers. This is an exciting opportunity to exercise your writing and research skills while making a difference to a local charity.
