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.
This post is for a Consultant Anaesthetist and Intensivist and will be based at Kent & Canterbury Hospital. The successful candidate will be responsible for delivering anaesthesia sessions with on-call commitments, with a requirement to cover ITU. Job plans within the department are flexible.
With this 10 PA position, there is 1 PA allocation for SPA and a second PA for taking on specific roles within the department, during which there is an expectation for the successful candidate to support appraisal, revalidation, and completion of mandatory training.
It is anticipated that this job plan will include cover for paediatrics, vascular, endovascular, orthopaedic, and urology lists, however, the job plan can be honed to reflect individual skills, knowledge, and experience.
