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.
There will be an expectation that you will provide support and information for staff to learn from incidents, taking into consideration human factors and the SEIPS methodology as described in the NHS Patient Safety Incident Response Framework. The role will provide assurance that change in practice has been embedded to reduce the risk of re-occurrence.
