To be 100% transparent from the get go, Our Perfect Candidate Looks like:
A proven consistently billing agency recruiter (1-3 years+), that is looking for a new sector and environment to make their own in a largely WFH setup. OR An estate agent that has a wee bit of recruitment experience and wants to bring their understanding of the industry and take the recruitment world by storm in this exciting role.
The perfect candidate needs to have experience working in a smaller agency / startup world, this role will not suit people who have come from larger agencies / corporate.
Location: Commutable to East London / Essex but this role is largely WFH with occasional client meetings.
The role
You'll take over a small existing book of live roles and client queries from day one, so there's income and momentum to work with immediately. But the real opportunity here is growth: we have a strong bank of previous clients who've gone quiet, and we need someone who'll get back on the phone, re-open relationships, and turn dormant contacts into active business. This is a genuine mix of delivery and business development — not a BD role dressed up as a recruitment job, and not a desk-sitting 360 role either. You'll do both, and shape how much weight sits on each as the business grows.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
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.
