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.
This post requires active participation in innovation and service improvement initiatives and audit. You will be supported with your personal development goals through annual appraisal and will have regular supervision.
You will also be involved with supervision of dietetic students and graduate dietitians as part of your role, so strong leadership and communication skills are essential. You will work with the wider team to review performance against national standards and identify areas for improvement, contribute to local team meetings including safety and governance, and contribute to training and education programs.
