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.
Our team are true market specialists who have grown alongside their sectors, building the kind of knowledge and credibility that only comes with time. If you want to work with people who inspire you, invest in your development and challenge you to be better, you will find that here. This role involves taking over a warm desk with existing opportunities and client relationships. We are looking for someone with recruitment experience and the ambition to make the most of it. Experience recruiting within the food & drink manufacturing sector would be a real advantage, but it isn't essential. A genuine interest in the sector is.
