Are you a creative and ambitious communications professional who thrives in a fast-paced environment and knows how to engage audiences through compelling content and digital channels?
Surrey and Sussex Healthcare NHS Trust (SASH) is looking for a proactive Communications Manager to join our busy and supportive Communications Team. This is an exciting opportunity to play a key role in delivering communications that support the Trust’s strategic priorities, helping to tell the story of our organisation through engaging campaigns, media relations, digital communications and stakeholder engagement.
Working with colleagues across the Trust, you will develop, deliver and evaluate communications plans and projects, identify and promote positive stories, and provide expert communications advice to services, senior leaders and clinical teams. You will be confident managing multiple priorities, building strong relationships with a wide range of stakeholders, and delivering high-quality communications activity that supports organisational objectives.
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.
