- English
- Turkish
- Spanish

- Develop ideas for articles, interviews, guides, features, and analysis
- Write content that feels natural and relevant to readers in your chosen language
- Prepare clear headlines, summaries, keywords, and basic SEO elements
- Edit and improve content in line with Kickwise’s editorial standards
- Localise selected articles for different audiences rather than relying on direct translation
- Contribute to the editorial calendar and collaborate with other members of the Kickwise team
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.
