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.
Key Responsibilities
- Proactive Credit Control: Build strong rapport with clients to facilitate timely payments, resolve query bottlenecks, and pursue overdue invoices in line with terms.
- Billing Management: Administer multi-site billing processes and serve as a reliable primary point of contact for billing queries.

- Team Collaboration: Drive process improvements, adapt to ad-hoc accounting tasks, and comfortably step in/deputise for colleagues during absences.
