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.
At Aspris Children’s Services, we are immensely proud of the career pathway and training we can offer you. As long as you can demonstrate the values needed for a role, transferable skills, and life experience, we will give you all the training and support you need to progress!
The Successful Candidate Will
Ideally have previous experience supporting in a classroom setting, have a Level 2 qualification (or equivalent), however this isn't mandatory providing you possess the following characteristics:
- Resilience - We support some of the most vulnerable children in society who have varying degrees of emotional behavioural difficulties, autism, ADHD, and associated difficulties so there will be times where your resilience is challenged.
- Communication - Communicating with our young people is vital to understand their needs. Good teamwork and communication plays a key part in ensuring important information is relayed to other staff.
- Organisation - Strong organisational skills are important to support the class teacher and young people with educational activities.
- Caring - Our young people require the best care we can offer. If you are a naturally caring and compassionate person, this is the role for you.
- Attentive - No two tasks will be the same so being attentive to understand them and identify areas where we can support is important.
