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.
What you’ll bring
- Independent challenge and objective scrutiny
- Relevant professional, governance, scrutiny or assurance experience
- The ability to test performance, risk and improvement information
- Knowledge in areas such as housing regulation, building safety, asset management, customer experience, equality, risk, finance or transformation
- Integrity, sound judgement and a collaborative critical-friend approach
- A strong commitment to better outcomes for tenants and leaseholders

We want TACT to reflect a wider range of perspectives. We particularly welcome applications from younger people, women, people from Black, Asian and other ethnically diverse communities, LGBTQIA+ people and disabled people.
