About the Digital Mental Health Group
The Digital Mental Health Group is one of the UK's largest and most influential research teams investigating the impact of digital technologies on youth mental health, with the aim of improving outcomes for children and young people worldwide. We are known for our innovative and rigorous scientific outputs, as well as our direct provision of scientific advice to senior policymakers and politicians.
Our research regularly attracts national and international media attention, making this an exciting opportunity for someone who is enthusiastic about working in a high-profile communications role and helping to amplify research that influences public debate and policy.
Our group currently includes our PI, Professor Amy Orben, one Assistant Research Professor, one Operations and Communications Centre Manager, two Postdoctoral Research Associates, three PhD students, three Research Assistants, one placement student with recruitment planned for three additional Research Associates. We value our team's complimentary skill sets (e.g., differing backgrounds, approaches, and areas of expertise) and actively work with other local and international research groups. Much of our work is team-based and involves work with government, charities, NGOs, policymakers, and other stakeholders.
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.
