Head of Protection
🏡 We’re on a mission to make home happen
We’re proud to be an award-winning home-buying platform, offering market-leading savings accounts and award-winning mortgage and protection advice, to make homeownership possible for a new generation.
Our culture is built around three core values:
- Find a way: We innovate relentlessly and leave no stone unturned to help our customers get the keys to their new home.
- It's all about the people: We’re involved in the biggest decision of our customer’s lives. Incredible service, care, and communication is non-negotiable.
- If you don’t like it, change it: As a fast-scaling startup, every voice matters. We listen to the data, challenge the status quo, and constantly evolve to do the best for our customers.
We’re also proud to be backed by leading venture funds including Goodwater Capital and Aviva, alongside ethical champions like Fair by Design, Barrow Cadbury, Big Society Capital, and the Joseph Rowntree Foundation.
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.
