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.

Your responsibilities will include:
- Writing engaging press releases, articles, and social media content

- Supporting social media activity, including creating content and filming simple video content for clients
- Monitoring coverage and producing campaign reports
- Researching ideas and contributing creative campaign concepts
- Supporting events, awards, and influencer activity

No two days are the same, making this an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys variety and wants to accelerate their PR career.
