The Role
I’m looking for two fun, friendly, and reliable personal assistants to support my daughter, Shannon, on a 2:1 basis. This role is focused on enabling her to enjoy activities in the community, develop independence, and build her social life—all while ensuring she remains safe and supported.
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.
