About Archus

We are a healthcare consultancy providing strategic advice directly to government, healthcare providers, and hospital groups. Founded in 2017, we have worked on over 1000 projects to date, supporting healthcare clients in the delivery of multi-million-pound healthcare projects across the UK, Canada, and other locations internationally.

The team is led by a highly experienced and capable senior leadership team who have worked together for many years. We have experienced significant growth since inception with five offices in the UK, one in Ireland, and one in Toronto, Canada.

We’re successfully targeting international growth via new territories while creating additional service offerings to meet the needs of the market and capitalise on global increases in healthcare spend. We position ourselves uniquely as one of the few firms of consultants to provide end-to-end advice on healthcare projects, from initial strategy development through to on-site delivery. This includes our Archus Insights team that provides a data analytics service to our UK and worldwide client base. A unique value proposition cited as the ability to support clients from “Boardroom to Boots”.

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.
