About the Role
We are looking for a reliable and organised Payroll & Operations Assistant to support our weekly payroll, finance administration, and general business operations.
This is a varied, cross-functional role that would suit someone who enjoys working with numbers, is confident with admin tasks, and takes pride in being accurate and dependable.
The role is part-time (12 hours per week) and would suit someone looking for flexible work, such as a returner to work, someone balancing other commitments, or an experienced administrator seeking reduced hours.
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.
