About the Role
We are seeking an enthusiastic and motivated individual with a passion for healthcare and research. You will be adaptable, organised, and able to work across different environments. You will play a key role in delivering research across a variety of settings, including primary care, community, residential care, and hospitals.
Working alongside Research Nurses, Clinical Research Practitioners, Allied Health Professionals, and Research Facilitators, you will:
- Support the set-up and delivery of NIHR portfolio studies.
- Engage with sites to facilitate research activity.
- Identify, recruit, and consent participants.
- Support data collection and participant follow-up in line with study protocols.
A driving licence and access to a car are essential, as you will be required to travel across the region. Travel expenses will be reimbursed in line with Trust policy.
Responsibilities
The focus for this role is to provide support to the delivery and/or setup of National Institute for Health and Care Research Delivery Network (NIHR RDN) Portfolio studies across varied health and care settings. This will require flexible autonomous working across disciplines and the Regional RDN (RRDN) region. This post has a dual function and the post holder will either contribute to research delivery and/or research support for wider care settings dependent upon regional need.
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.
