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.
Responsibilities:
- You will have P&L responsibility and will be expected to drive sales initially, but then build a team around your success.
- You will then be able to guide your future prospects based on that success, and this role is effectively a Branch Manager role once the results justify growth of the branch.
- You will have access to operations staff and can decide who you bring in to support your aims - an Operations Manager has been identified already but this is open to discussion.
