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.
Applicants should possess a good standard of IT literacy, including experience of using Microsoft Office applications and the ability to produce spreadsheets, reports, and other written documentation to a professional standard.
As this is a temporary six-month contract, the role will be predominantly office-based. Appropriate training and support will be provided where required. A full UK driving licence and the ability to travel to sites across the district is desirable.
