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 is the role?
We’re looking for a dynamic, highly organised PA to support our Regional Chair across the North East & Yorkshire division. This isn’t your average PA role. You’ll be the go-to driving force — highly organised, proactive, and ready to solve problems before they happen. From managing complex diaries to prepping top-level meetings, you’ll blend traditional PA excellence with modern tools like AI to drive efficiency across the board.
What You’ll Do As a Personal Assistant
- Full PA support, including diary management, travel arrangements, and meeting coordination
- Regional coordination and communication support across multiple territories
- Preparation of reports, briefings, and presentations
- Proactive problem-solving using both traditional PA skills and modern tools, including AI
- Ensuring priorities are anticipated and managed effectively in a fast-paced environment
