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 the children are looking for
An enthusiastic, kind, approachable, fair and positive role-model, with a sense of humour and a calm and caring nature who will ensure they achieve their very best.
We are offering the opportunity for you to:
- Enjoy the experience of learning alongside our happy, well-behaved children who are eager to learn.
- Work within a friendly and supportive team who will take an active interest in your well-being and development.
- Benefit from the support of our strong Christian community.
- Achieve great things as our school ‘dreams big’.
