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.
This is a pivotal role in making meaningful differences in healthcare outcomes.
What Will You Need?
Success in this role requires a blend of strategic thinking, sales expertise, and relationship-building. You’ll thrive if you:
- Have proven sales experience, with experience in value-based and portfolio selling—especially in hospital and community healthcare settings.
- Demonstrate strong account management skills, with a track record of driving revenue growth and increasing market share.
- Confidently engage with senior clinical and non-clinical stakeholders, including NHS procurement professionals.
- Hold a qualification in life sciences, business management, or equivalent.
- Have a valid driving licence (due to the high travel requirement).
