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.
We are looking for an excellent, self-motivated individual who has experience working with primary aged children. As a new member of the team, you would be working closely with our experienced WRAP team (all of whom also work in the school during the teaching day).

-
A very friendly and supportive staff team
In addition to the above, we have a beautiful school and grounds (both of which which our WRAP club use) as well as a welcoming and supportive team and lovely children!
Visits to the school are welcomed and strongly encouraged.
Interviews will be held the week commencing 10 July 2026 by agreement.
The start date would be 05 October 2026.
