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 Do You Need?
To excel as a Roadside Rescue Mechanic, you’ll require:
- NVQ Level 3 in Vehicle Maintenance and Repair or equivalent qualifications and experience.
- A full Category B (car) driving licence with 6 points or fewer.
- Confidence in adapting to new technology—curiosity and ongoing learning will be provided by us; the tools will be issued, but your adaptability is key.
- Flexibility to work shift patterns, including evenings, weekends, and Bank Holidays—because breakdowns don’t follow a 9-to-5 schedule!
