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.
No two days will ever be the same, but your day-to-day responsibilities will include:
- Preparing, cooking, and serving food
- Understanding people's needs, likes, and choices to develop suitable menus
- Interacting with the people we support to get feedback on meals
- Complying with food hygiene standards
- Completing relevant checks and maintaining records
- Being a great team player, working as part of the wider Catering Team
If you haven't worked in the care sector before, we'll help you feel right at home from the start with our induction, buddy, and ongoing training programmes.
About You
Above all, you're someone who identifies with our values of fun, integrity, responsiveness, success, and teamwork.
