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.
You will inherit a warm desk with ongoing mandates and trusted relationships already in place. We have successfully filled roles with leading organisations including Chubb, Auto Protect, CK Re, Cameron Specialty, Clear, IUA, Landmark, Navigator, Ryan Specialty, White Bear, and Zurich. There is substantial opportunity to continue deepening these partnerships while also expanding into new segments of the Underwriting market.
You will work alongside a highly collaborative Insurance team known for its strong performance, high standards, and supportive culture. We place significant emphasis on development and provide structured progression pathways for consultants ready to elevate their careers. The Insurance division continues to perform strongly, supported by robust market activity and a healthy pipeline of future hiring needs across Underwriting and Specialty classes.
