Are you a passionate and compassionate nurse leader looking for your next challenge? Do you want to play a pivotal role in shaping the care and experience of young people with complex mental health needs? If so, we'd love to hear from you.

Our Medium Secure CAMHS Unit is seeking an exceptional Ward Manager for a 12 month fixed term position. This is an exciting opportunity to join a specialist 10-bed mixed-gender service, delivering high-quality, person-centred care to young people in a secure setting.

Role Overview

As Ward Manager, you will provide visible and inspiring leadership to a dedicated nursing team, creating a positive, inclusive and therapeutic environment for both patients and staff. You will play a key role in driving service improvement, maintaining high standards of care, and ensuring young people receive the best possible support on their recovery journey.

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.
