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.
Requirements
- Proven experience in an administrative, office management, or PA position.

- Confident communicator with excellent written and verbal communication skills.
- Able to work effectively both independently and as part of a small team.
- Experience working with CRM systems and databases would be advantageous.
- Experience using Xero would be beneficial but is not essential.
- A full driving licence and access to a vehicle is required due to the office location.
