Powering Great Work
We started as the place to find a trusted trade. Now, as we shape the future of home improvement, we're building the tech to transform that landscape for everyone - better products, smarter data, AI where it actually helps - so trades can spend less time on admin and consumers can find someone they trust, first time. That's Powering Great Work, and it's why every team here exists:
- 🔧 Trades spend less time on admin and more on winning work and growing their business
- 🏠 Homeowners get a trusted trade, first time, every time
- 🚀 We get to build products that change homes and lives across the country
As our next Customer Service Advisor (Trade Support), you'll be the first voice tradespeople hear when they need help, support or advice. Whether it's solving a problem, answering a question or showing them how to get more from their membership, you'll make every interaction simple, helpful and worth their time. That's how trades get back to winning work, and it's a big part of why they stay with us.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
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.
