About The Role
We are seeking a detail-oriented and technically skilled Paraplanner to join a successful and client-focused financial planning firm. This is an excellent opportunity for a Diploma-qualified (or working towards) individual who enjoys building technical reports, supporting financial advisers, and helping clients achieve their long-term goals.
Working closely with advisers, administrators, and investment specialists, you’ll play a key role in the financial planning process — from research and analysis to report writing and compliance.
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.
