Do you have a knack for customers?

We’re on the lookout for those with some retail experience (or another customer-focused sales environment). You’ll need to demonstrate:

  • Quick and efficient working – we’ll provide the product knowledge and training to give recommendation-spot-on advice to customers, whether spoken or through product demonstration/fitting guidance.

From providing training to develop your career in Retail or elsewhere within the group, we’re committed to helping you achieve your ambitions at your own pace.


About the Role

We’re looking for a proactive, customer-savvy person with a knack for customer service. If you love helping others, we could be the perfect match—whether in Retail, at Halfords or in another exciting part of our Group.


Key Responsibilities

You will need to deliver great customer service, ideally in a retail sales role. Your approach will set the tone for the customer experience:

  • Proactive customer support – anticipating and meeting customer needs
  • Problem-solving skills – to troubleshoot and answer queries effectively
  • Flexibility – availability to work on a rota basis, including weekends
  • (Ideally) Sales experience – balancing customer care with performance targets

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

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.
