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.
As a graduate you will be involved in a wide range of activities, including but not limited to, client meetings, researching entitlement and tax history on property transactions, formulating acquisition claims, applying tax treatment to capital project expenditure as well as delivering claim reports to a high standard to ensure our clients’ expectations are met.
This 2 year programme is for graduates wanting to specialise in Capital Allowances. We will provide structured training and support for you to gain the Assessment of Professional Competence (APC) via the Taxation Allowances pathway through the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS).
