If you’re ambitious, entrepreneurial and looking for a genuine platform to accelerate your career, keep reading.
Responsibilities
- Executive and senior leadership appointments across private equity-backed and high-growth businesses
- CFO, Finance Leadership, C-Suite and Board-level mandates
- Retained and search-led assignments
- Business development, client engagement and search delivery
You’ll be involved throughout the entire hiring lifecycle:
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.
- Client briefing and search strategy
- Market mapping and talent identification
- Candidate assessment and shortlisting
- Stakeholder management
- Offer negotiation and closing
This is a genuinely client-facing role where you’ll build relationships, not just source candidates.

- Recruitment or executive search experience
- Experience recruiting senior finance, leadership or specialist hires
- Exposure to private equity-backed, investor-backed or high-growth businesses is highly desirable
- Proven ability to build relationships with senior stakeholders
- Strong commercial instincts and business development capability
- Self-motivated, organised and comfortable working with autonomy
Required Skills
- Competitive and ambitious
- Personable and relationship-driven
- Commercially sharp

Equal Opportunity Statement
We’re looking for people who back themselves. Who This Opportunity Is Perfect For: You may be a successful recruiter billing well but feeling capped by your current environment, working on mid-level roles and wanting to move into executive search and private equity, frustrated by bureaucracy and lack of ownership, or looking for a genuine entrepreneurial opportunity with meaningful earning potential.
