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.
What we're looking for:
- You'll need a minimum of two years' payroll experience and strong practical experience using BrightPay.
- You'll also be comfortable working in a high-volume payroll environment, managing multiple deadlines, and communicating directly with clients.
Experience within an accountancy practice or payroll bureau would be advantageous, as would experience using Sage payroll.

Just as importantly, we're looking for someone who enjoys being part of a team. You'll be able to manage your own workload, but you'll also be someone who is happy to support colleagues and work together when deadlines require it.
Why Ballards?
At Ballards, we're more than accountants – we're trusted business advisers, strategic partners, and problem solvers. You'll join an established and supportive team, work with a varied client portfolio, and have the opportunity to take real ownership of your work.
