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.
As our Substance Use, Gambling and Wellbeing Coach, you’ll provide specialist advice and support to colleagues across Greater Manchester who work with people on probation whose low-level substance use, gambling or emotional wellbeing impacts their rehabilitation but does not meet the threshold for structured treatment.
You’ll work alongside Wellbeing Hubs and Women’s Centres, helping teams develop the knowledge, confidence and skills to deliver brief interventions, harm reduction advice and community-based wellbeing support. You’ll also provide direct support to a small number of individuals where needs are more complex or additional capacity is required. This is a unique opportunity to combine specialist knowledge, partnership working and coaching to improve wellbeing and reduce reoffending across Greater Manchester.
