This is an exciting opportunity to influence change at scale, make a lasting impact across the Trust, and help build a workforce that is fit for the future while delivering the best possible outcomes for our communities.

  • Develop workforce plans, organisation design solutions and people strategies that support sustainable, high-performing services.
  • Build strong relationships with programme leads, operational managers, trade unions and staff representatives to facilitate successful change delivery.
  • Lead on complex employee relations matters arising from transformation activity, ensuring compliance with employment legislation, NHS policy and best practice.
  • Undertake change impact assessments, workforce risk analysis and consultation planning to support effective decision-making.
  • Use workforce data, people analytics and organisational insight to inform transformation plans and evaluate outcomes.

  • Ensure equality, diversity and inclusion are embedded throughout organisational change processes.
  • Provide expert coaching, challenge and support to senior leaders to enable effective leadership of transformation programmes.

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.
