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 we are looking for
You should have experience personally managing projects or substantial work packages within a technical environment.
Relevant backgrounds could include:
- Defence
- Aerospace
- Aviation
- Engineering
- Technology
You should also be comfortable managing project plans, budgets, risks, and delivery performance rather than working purely in a coordination or support capacity.
Practical experience with Microsoft Project or Project Web App is important. Power BI experience for project reporting or administration would also be useful.
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
Additional experience that would be useful
- Complex engineering or regulated project environments
- Customer and supplier-facing delivery
- APM, PRINCE2, Agile, or another recognised Project Management qualification
- Engineering, Physical Sciences, or a related technical qualification
- Current UK SC clearance
Current SC clearance is advantageous rather than essential.
Security requirements
Due to the nature of the work, applicants must be British. Dual British nationals may be considered.
Location and working pattern
The role is based in Dorset with a hybrid working pattern. Applicants should be within a realistic commuting distance of Dorset and able to attend the site regularly.
