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.

You're proactive, adaptable and focused on continuous improvement, always looking for ways to develop your skills and make a positive contribution to the team. Enthusiasm, curiosity, attention to detail and a willingness to learn are key to success in this role.
We're looking for someone with an understanding of Google Ads and a passion for paid media, as well as:
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
- Excellent attention to detail and a commitment to quality
- The ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines effectively
