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 sessions will be as part of the Autism service. In special schools this will be with primary and / or secondary/post-16 age students. Some time will be based within settings, as the link SaLT; and some will be supporting the wider team to develop their Autism practice as well as working in the Autism diagnostics team.
Candidates’ preferences will be taken into account where possible. The service employs over 100 staff and so opportunities arise frequently and staff are deployed flexibly to meet changing need.
We embrace flexible working and will consider applicants who wish to work part-time. If at all interested, we strongly suggest that you call or email to discuss these posts.
