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 will bring:
- Relevant experience from a generalist HR or advisory background
- A CIPD Level 5 qualification (or equivalent)
- A good working knowledge of employment law
- Experience in drafting HR correspondence
If you’re someone who can balance sound HR advice with a friendly, supportive approach across all of these generalist areas, we would like to hear from you.
