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.
Better with SAP Experience (But Not Essential!)
- This role is perfect if you thrive with data analysis, finding patterns, and making financial complexity easy to understand.
- Excitement to learn quickly is crucial—but SAP experience is a plus.
What We’re Looking For

- Must demonstrate a confident, collaborative approach with strong communication skills.
- Excel expertise required—fluency in:

- Clear, accurate presentations of complex financials
