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.
Requirements
- Experience of writing technical public funding proposals, including for the European Commission’s Framework Programme Horizon Europe and/or Innovate UK.
- Degree or postgraduate degree in a scientific, engineering, or business discipline.
- Excellent communication of written and verbal English.
- Ability to work under pressure and to strict deadlines.
- Highly organised with excellent attention to detail.
