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.
What We're Looking For
We're looking for someone who is professional, approachable, and proactive, with a genuine focus on delivering excellent customer service. As this is a largely stand-alone role, you'll need to be comfortable working independently, managing your own time, and prioritizing daily responsibilities without constant supervision.

You'll ideally have:
- Confidence using IT systems, reception tools, and basic office technology.
- Previous experience working with business space tenants within an office or corporate workspace environment is essential.
- Clear, professional, and confident communication skills.
- Strong customer service skills, with a proactive, helpful, and solutions-focused approach.
- Strong attention to detail.
- Good awareness of health, safety, and security responsibilities within a managed building environment.
- The ability to remain calm, professional, and responsive.
- Fire Marshal training.
- First aid training.
