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.
The sort of role where you'll spend as much time influencing internally as you will sitting across the table from your customer.
You'll be trusted to make decisions, challenge where needed, and spot opportunities others miss.
What they're looking for
- You've probably already managed national retail accounts within FMCG.
- Private label experience would be ideal.
- You understand the numbers as well as the relationships.
- You're commercially curious, confident in front of customers, and comfortable owning both the wins and the challenges.
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
Why this one?
Because you'll be joining a fantastic private-label manufacturer at a time when they're continuing to invest and grow.
It's a business where commercial teams are trusted, decisions happen quickly, and you'll have the opportunity to genuinely influence some of the biggest retail partnerships in the business.
If you're looking for another role where you simply maintain an account... This probably isn't it.
If you want to build one instead, let's have a chat.
