About The Role
This is a hands-on role for a recruiter who enjoys working closely with hiring managers, finding great people and building creative approaches to talent attraction.

- Help strengthen the SYOS employer brand across relevant talent markets.

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.
