Job Description

This is a new position that would suit a medical oncologist with a significant interest in early cancer diagnosis working primarily at The Royal Marsden but in close collaboration with ICR and research partners in the AHSC.

The post-holder would focus on early detection research in Sarcoma (with an opportunity to develop research that crosses into other departments, notably genetics). They would also be involved in research in secondary prevention and early detection of recurrent cancers or second primary cancers. The post-holder will work closely with the Consultant Respiratory Physician with an Interest in Early Cancer Diagnosis, and BRC Early Diagnosis and Detection Centre leads, and together would serve as champions for early detection research and innovation more broadly within the RM/ICR BRC. They would work in close collaboration with Imperial researchers interested in this field through under the AHSC umbrella and with other BRCs with cancer research themes. This is a combined position between the Acute Oncology Service (AOS) & the Sarcoma Unit. They will report and be accountable to the Director of Clinical Research and the Chief Medical Officer.

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.
