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.
- Internal Sales
- External Sales
- Marketing
- Exports
A key feature of the programme is “Role Appreciation”, which touches on all areas of the business from Production, Warehouse, and Transport to all support functions.
This means spending time embedded in different departments to truly understand how the business operates, gaining first-hand insight into manufacturing, logistics, and operations.
You’ll build cross-functional knowledge, stronger internal relationships, and develop the commercial awareness needed to become a well-rounded sales leader.
You Will Also
- Shadow experienced Area Sales Managers
- Attend exhibitions and industry events
- Complete internal and external sales training
- Develop technical product knowledge
- Deliver project work
