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.
Knowledge of the creative industries, experience of public speaking and experience managing ambassador programmes would be advantageous.
Why join us?
You'll be joining a vibrant, creative organisation where you can make a real difference to young people's futures. This is a varied role with plenty of opportunity to bring your ideas to life, build strong relationships and help prospective students discover their potential.
If you're passionate about creativity, education and connecting with people, we'd love to hear from you.
