Robots Can't Replace a Real Conversation. Become a Human Connection Specialist.
Let's address the elephant in the room.
The headlines are everywhere: "AI is coming for entry-level jobs." And sure, ChatGPT can draft an email, analyse data, and maybe even tell a half-decent joke. But here's what it can't do:
- It can't read the room.
- It can't build genuine trust with a smile.
- It can't sense hesitation, pivot a conversation, or celebrate a win with a high-five that actually means something.
Human connection is the ultimate un-automatable skill. And right now, demand for it is exploding.
So while the world panics about bots taking over, we're doubling down on people. Real, ambitious, slightly-caffeinated people who want to build something AI never will: a career with soul, growth, and leadership baked in.
Enter Playbook Direct.
We're on the hunt for energetic, people-loving, growth-obsessed humans to join us as:
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.

Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
All while AI watches from the sidelines, utterly incapable of doing what you do.
The Culture Bit (No Corporate Fluff, Promise):
- No egos.
- No hierarchy theatre.
- No clock-watching for a promotion that might never come.
- Just open conversations, performance-based progression, and a team that works hard and switches off properly when the day's done.
- Your voice matters from day one – not year five.
The Money Bit 💸:
- Solid day rate.
- Uncapped commissions.
- Market-leading earnings for those who bring energy and effort.
- The Senior Director package? North of £125k. And it's not a lottery ticket. It's a roadmap with your name on it.
