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.
What You’ll Do
You’ll provide emotional and behavioural support, promote a safe and comfortable environment, and assist with daily living and personal goals. Every day, you’ll help someone move closer to independence—and that’s a powerful impact.

- Confident and emotionally resilient
- Quick decision-makers
- Able to maintain professional boundaries
- Passionate about helping others thrive
Shift Patterns
- Between 8am–10pm, Monday to Sunday
- Alternate weekends
- Sleep-ins required (with competitive rates)
