About The Role
At AO, we’re all about keeping things simple, doing the right thing and making life easy — for our customers and our people.
We’re on the lookout for an Operational Trainer to help us do just that. If you’re passionate about developing others, know your way around MHE, and love creating safe, confident teams — this could be your perfect next move.
Here's What You Can Expect To Be Doing
- Deliver practical and engaging training across multiple departments
- Lead inductions for new starters and agency colleagues
- Train, assess and re‑certify colleagues on MHE
- Make sure everything we do is safe, compliant and by the book
- Keep training records accurate and up to date
- Work closely with teams like Health & Safety, HR and Operations
- Spot opportunities to improve processes and raise standards
- Help make sure mandatory training is completed across your shift
A Few Things About You
We’re after someone who’s confident, hands‑on and great with people — someone who can bring training to life and adapt their style to suit every learner.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
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.
