Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar

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.

Key Responsibilities:

- Work Across Multiple Markets: Compare insurers, products and available options to find appropriate solutions while building wider market knowledge.
- Work with Delegated Authority: Make underwriting decisions within agreed parameters and further develop your technical motor underwriting experience.
- Support Future Growth: Play a part in developing the facility and, as the team expands, have the opportunity to support junior colleagues and move towards a leadership role.
