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 will learn how payroll operates, need to be able to maintain accurate records and will develop a strong understanding of payroll legislation.
You don't need any previous payroll experience, we want someone who is eager to learn and committed to delivering excellent service.
We will provide structured training and an opportunity for career progression for the right candidate.
If you enjoy working with numbers, are detail-orientated and looking for a career in payroll, we would love to hear from you!
