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.
What you’ll do
- Carry out general cleaning duties to keep the service clean, safe and welcoming
- Handle laundry from start to finish – sorting, washing, drying, ironing and minor repairs
- Use cleaning and laundry equipment safely, following COSHH and infection control guidelines
- Keep track of stock and re-order supplies when needed
- Report faults or issues to your manager promptly
Whether you’ve worked in a commercial cleaning or laundry role before, or this is new to you, we’ll give you all the training you need to succeed.
What helps you shine here
- A keen eye for detail and pride in your work
- Willingness to work flexibly, including weekends
- Good communication and teamwork skills
- Ability to carry out manual tasks safely
- Sewing skills (hemming, buttons, small repairs) – nice to have, but not essential
- Knowledge of COSHH and infection control (advantageous, but training provided)
