Job Title
This is an exciting time to be involved in CLL/Lymphoma management, with major advances in diagnostics and target therapies, including cellular immunotherapy. We are seeking to appoint a clinical research fellow on a fixed term basis for 12 months.
About the Role
The post will support the lymphoma service primarily at the Sutton site. The fellow will attend the major Wednesday CLL/Lymphoma clinic in Sutton and there may be instances when the candidate is required to cover the clinics in Chelsea. An important part of the role will be to support the clinical trial activity and it is anticipated that the candidate will review the patients in early phase clinical trials under the supervision of the Consultants. It is also anticipated that the postholder would carry out a clinical research project with an aim to publish results in peer reviewed journals. The post would not form part of study for a higher degree (PhD or research MD) although there may be opportunities to move into a higher degree following the post. The job would be ideal for a candidate who wanted to gain a deeper experience of CLL/Lymphoma management and to learn about clinical trial set up and delivery, including phase I/II trials, at a leading tertiary centre.
Key Responsibilities
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.
