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.
We’re looking for:
- Strong hands-on Workday experience in a medium/large, complex organisation
- Advanced/expert configuration experience across Absence & Time Tracking
- Experience taking requirements through design, configuration, testing and implementation
- Knowledge of wider Workday functionality including HCM, Recruitment, Talent, Compensation, Security and Reporting
- Experience with EIBs and an understanding of integrations
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
- The confidence to influence stakeholders across a global environment
This isn't simply a role maintaining an existing system. There is significant investment underway and real scope to influence how Workday is configured, optimised and used across the business.
If you're a Workday specialist who enjoys being the SME but also wants to understand the wider business and make tangible improvements, we'd love to hear from you.
