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.
What we're looking for:
- Qualified Social Worker with Social Work England registration
- Minimum 3 years' post-qualifying experience within Children's Services
- Previous experience completing one or more of the above assessments independently
- Excellent report writing and analytical skills
- Ability to manage your own workload and meet agreed timescales
- Enhanced DBS (or willingness to obtain one)
- Access to your own transport for community-based work (where required)
What we offer:
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
- Competitive rates per assessment
- Flexible workload to fit around your availability
- Opportunities across the West Midlands
- Payment on completion of assessment
- Dedicated consultant support
- Long-term partnership opportunities with Local Authorities and Independent Fostering Agencies
Whether you're already working independently or considering moving into freelance assessment work, we'd love to hear from you.
📩 Apply via LinkedIn or email your CV to d.ola@vantisworkforce.com with a summary of your assessment experience.
Please include the types of assessments you've completed and the regions you're able to cover.
