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.
Hours Needed
The PEC is currently open from 9am-3pm, Monday-Friday. We are seeking people to help us man the PEC to keep us open to the public during these hours. If you are available on weekends, we would also be happy to open the PEC on the weekends too!
We don't expect you to cover the full 6 hours at once (unless you would like to!), but a minimum of 2 hours would be expected at a time.
Requirements
- Friendly and reliable.
- Passion for our local environment.
- We are seeking like-minded people that can engage and chat with visitors (both local and from out of town) about our three organisations, what we do, how they can contribute, and how the products in the store can benefit both them and support our organisations.
- Retail experience is beneficial but not essential as long as you have a willingness to learn something new!
