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.

Managing the daily operation of the kitchen, leading and motivating the kitchen team, cooking and preparing high-quality fresh food.
You will be responsible for maintaining excellent food hygiene and health & safety standards (we use Food Alert), stock control, rota, ordering and supplier management, and assisting with menu planning and event preparation.
Ensuring smooth kitchen organisation during busy times will be central to the role.
The Ideal Candidate
Previous experience working within a catering company is essential, along with strong cooking skills and a genuine passion for food.
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
You will have experience managing a kitchen team, excellent organisational and communication skills, and the ability to work calmly under pressure.
A good understanding of food safety and HACCP procedures is required, as is a reliable, hardworking and proactive attitude.
What We Offer
A competitive salary with the opportunity to grow within a fast expanding catering business, a friendly and supportive working environment, and varied, exciting work across events and corporate catering.
