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.
Person Specification
- You've probably have managed diaries of a service or technical support teams OR have strong experience of a logistics management / coordinator role: so you've either managed the movement of people or things to deadlines whilst maintaining an understanding of profitability.
- You're exceptionally organised: keeping records of project milestones, service appointments and delivery dates across several projects at sites all across the UK.
- You're also an excellent communicator: able to parse information, and report back in a clear concise and accurate way to the relevant project stakeholders (internal and external customers).
- Any exposure to facilities management companies would be an advantage, but is not essential.
