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.
What you’ll need to succeed
We are looking for a motivated, people-focused leader who can bring colleagues together around a shared purpose and build a culture of accountability, collaboration and continuous improvement.
You will have experience leading and developing operational support teams, helping people perform at their best while maintaining strong service and operational standards. You will be confident improving ways of working, challenging inefficiencies and implementing practical solutions that benefit customers, colleagues and the organisation.
You will understand systems, processes and performance management, using data and insight to monitor performance, identify trends and support continuous improvement. You will be committed to high-quality service, consistent ways of working and giving your team the tools, knowledge and support to succeed.
Strong relationship-building skills are essential, as you will work with colleagues, customers, contractors and other stakeholders to deliver effective services. You will also support change, promote new ways of working and keep your team engaged and focused through improvement.
