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 we’re looking for
You'll be flexible, organised and able to manage your workload with minimal supervision. Strong customer service, communication and interpersonal skills are essential, as you'll work with a range of contractors, colleagues, stakeholders and members of the public.
Previous experience in highways or a related field is desirable, although we welcome applications from candidates with transferable skills and relevant experience.
You'll be able to meet the travel requirements of the role.
This position may also be offered as an apprenticeship, with the opportunity to undertake either a Level 3 Civil Engineering or Level 3 Business Administration qualification.
