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.
No two days will be quite the same. You might be:
- Helping visitors explore the displays
- Preparing materials for an exhibition
- Updating collections information
- Supporting promotion through social media
- Carrying out routine safety and security checks
- Making sure the shop and public areas are ready for the day
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
We are looking for someone with:
- Good customer service skills
- Clear communication
- Confidence using Microsoft Office
- The ability to work both independently and as part of a small team
An interest in museums, galleries, local history or heritage would be an advantage but most important is a positive, helpful approach and a commitment to giving every visitor a great experience.
