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.

This is an opportunity to become a recognised specialist in sectors that will continue to grow for years to come.
The Role
As a 360 Recruitment Consultant, you'll take ownership of your own specialist market, building long-term client relationships and delivering high-quality recruitment solutions.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Winning new business and developing key accounts
- Managing the full recruitment lifecycle
