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.
We’re collaborative, people-focused, and genuinely passionate about the work we do. We work hard, move quickly, and have a lot of fun while doing it.
The Associate Role
The Associate role is a key member of the Campaigns team – playing an important role in the delivery of recruitment campaigns, talent engagement projects, and social impact programs.
We’re firm believers in ‘practise what you preach’, so almost all of our internal hiring is focused on high-capability juniors, who learn our market, methodology, and countless key skills, and are able to grow and develop with our organization.
Day-to-day responsibilities include:
- Identifying, approaching, and building relationships with candidates – typically young people, with limited or no work experience. We see ourselves as guides and educators – identifying what people would be good at and where they would fit, and explaining these sectors/industries/functions to them.
- Supporting candidates through client interview processes, preparing them for interviews, and supporting them to be successful.
- Managing hiring processes to create a fantastic experience for the businesses we work with, and our candidates.
