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.
The job, in a nutshell
You’ll be the face of GreenThumb across your patch — visiting customers daily to:
- Apply treatments
- Diagnose lawn issues
- Spot wider opportunities in the garden
- Offer expert advice
- Recommend suitable products and services
- Handle seasonal machine work (aerating, scarifying, top-dressing)
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
Every visit is a chance to grow the business and build relationships. If you’re independent, active, and outdoors-focused, you’ll thrive in a role where no two days are the same.
Who are we looking for?
We’re not necessarily looking for lawn care experts—we’re looking for people who are brilliant with customers. The lawn knowledge will be trained; great customer service can’t be taught, and it’s central to everything we do.
You’ll thrive here if you:
- Hold a full UK manual driving licence
- Love talking to people and delivering brilliant service
- Have a genuine passion for the outdoors
- Are organised, reliable, and self-motivated
- Have the right to work in the UK
