Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
You will provide administrative support to the administration team and medical secretaries within the department. Key duties will include preparing medical notes, filing documentation to ensure patient records are complete and up to date, and undertaking a variety of administrative and reception responsibilities in line with the job description.
The successful candidate will have a good standard of IT skills and be able to work accurately and efficiently in a busy environment. Previous experience of NHS computer systems would be advantageous; however, full training will be provided for the right candidate. We are looking for an organised, proactive individual with excellent communication skills and a positive, flexible approach to work.
