General Duties
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.

- You're hungry to grow and you take personal responsibility for your work and your development.
- You're comfortable with complexity and you'd rather solve a hard technical problem than avoid it.
- You work well across disciplines — you know good delivery depends on civil, power and digital teams pulling in the same direction.
- You use sound judgment under pressure and you're straight with people about risk and programme.
- You're professional and approachable with users, and you take ownership of the issues you pick up until they're resolved.
- You can prioritise and adapt at pace in a fast-moving, ticket-driven environment, and you're a collaborative team player.
EXPERIENCE

- Some experience in an IT support or helpdesk role, or a strong foundation from relevant training/qualifications if you're newer to the field
- Good technical understanding across desktop, network, and systems support
- Strong problem-solving skills and close attention to detail

Desirable
- Familiarity with incident management systems and awareness of ITIL practices
