Role Details

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.
Our current caseload is equivalent to 22 booked clinical contacts per week (pro rata for part-time staff), ensuring a manageable workload that supports high-quality, patient-centred care.
Alongside delivering assessments and treatment, you’ll have opportunities to contribute to the wider functioning of the team. We are committed to creating an environment where clinicians can develop project management, leadership, and supervision skills, alongside strengthening their clinical expertise.
Requirements
You will bring experience in risk assessment and management, formulation, and evidence-based treatment of Talking Therapies-appropriate presentations (i.e. depression and anxiety disorders). If there are areas you are keen to develop further, we are proud to offer a comprehensive programme of professional development, high-quality supervision, and peer support to help you thrive.
We actively encourage applications from clinicians from diverse backgrounds. We are passionate about building a workforce that reflects the communities we serve, particularly in relation to heritage, and we are committed to fostering an inclusive, respectful, and supportive workplace for all.
