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.
Whilst in the main the duties will be between normal working hours, the specialist cleaning service is a 24 hours 7 days a week service, therefore there is a requirement to provide an element of 'on call' / standby duties, this is evenly shared between the team. An on-call standby allowance and any additional working hours are paid over and above the stipulated salary. During the interview the on-call duties will be explained in more detail.
