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.
A key aspect of this role is the ability to investigate situations where there is no light present at the designated pick-up point. Successful candidates will be capable of tracing the existing network, locating previous joints or splitter locations, and identifying the correct routing to restore the light path and complete the installation.
Essential Experience
- Proven experience working on full fibre network builds.
- Fibre splicing on live fibre networks.
- Construction of fibre joints (CMJs).
- Installation of PBO equipment.
- Experience working within underground chambers.
- Experience working on Openreach pole infrastructure.
- Good understanding of fibre splitter architecture.
- Ability to locate faults and identify missing light paths.
- Experience reading network drawings and as-built records.
- Ability to work independently with minimal supervision.
- Strong attention to quality and detail.
