By working as part of a wider Multi-Disciplinary Team we strive to deliver best evidence care that is individualised for our patients. We work closely with our partners in Primary and Secondary Care, providing early treatment intervention and supporting the transition from hospital to community management. The service also offers an advice and guidance to other Health Care Professionals across Bristol, North Somerset & South Gloucestershire.

  • To Provide clinical leadership, expertise, education and clinical supervision to immediate team members and other individuals across the organisation and system
  • To develop and implement policies, protocols, standards of care and guidelines in line with national and local policy within the team and specialty policies for the wider organisation.
  • To be able to communicate complex patient related information effectively to ensure collaborative working with MDT members and with MDT colleagues across health and social care sectors to ensure the delivery of a co-ordinated multidisciplinary service
  • To manage a clinical caseload of patients within the heart failure service pathway

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.
