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.
Alongside that, some front-end UX/UI knowledge would be valuable to help keep the site user-friendly, and an understanding of website accessibility would also be really important to ensure the site continues to be inclusive for everyone.
You'll be comfortable following web development best practices and coding standards where appropriate, with knowledge of HTML, CSS, JavaScript and PHP an advantage.
An understanding of cyber security best practice and website accessibility is important, helping us protect our digital assets while ensuring a great user experience.
Above all, we're looking for someone who enjoys solving problems, stays up to date with emerging technologies and security risks, can work collaboratively with our existing IT volunteer and small team and is passionate about using their technical skills to support the work of a growing charity.
