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.
Our business model is to sub-contract our components, then assemble at our facilities in Knutsford and Chennai. Our culture is agile, entrepreneurial, and decisive. There are no layers of bureaucracy, endless committees, or slow-moving approval processes. We value common sense, accountability, and action.
Who We Are Looking For
Our ideal candidate will have a strong financial background as well as being a practical mechanical engineer who can manage several operations both in the UK and overseas.
Our objectives are to make money and as Managing Director you will concentrate on maximising selling prices and minimising costs to improve our "gross margin is king" philosophy.
