Join Our Team as a First Response Agent!
Are you a confident communicator looking for your next step? Whether you've worked in a call centre, sales, retail, hospitality, or customer service, or you've recently finished a law degree and want to start your legal career, we'd love to hear from you.
No call centre experience? No problem. We provide full training in every part of the role, so what matters most is your attitude, your communication skills, and your willingness to learn.

CEL Solicitors is on a huge growth trajectory, with a plan to be the UK's number one consumer law firm, known nationally for legal services and financial complaints.
At CEL, we blend the professionalism of a corporate firm with the warmth of a family business. We are different, but in a good way!

Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
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.
