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.
With attention to accuracy and a keen eye for detail, you’ll:
- Focus on numerous tasks at once.
- Be an excellent problem solver with a can-do attitude.
- Research and recommend solutions, working independently and as part of a team.
- Demonstrate a strong commitment to consistency and support the optimisation of planning processes.
Having a previous background in commercial planning within a manufacturing environment combined with strong Excel skills will make you a strong candidate for the role!
