At present, University Hospitals of North Midlands is unable to offer visa sponsorship for Band 2 to Band 4 roles, as these positions do not meet the minimum salary and skill thresholds required under UK Visas and Immigration (UKVI) regulations.

The University Hospital of North Midlands, Mid Cheshire and East Cheshire NHS Trusts work in partnership following the formation of the Pathology Network North Midlands and Cheshire Pathology Service (NMCPS).

We are seeking applications from enthusiastic, highly motivated, and confident individuals to join our Phlebotomy team as a Deputy Phlebotomy Manager.

The collection of quality blood samples from patients is a vital stage in many medical investigations.

Based at County Hospital, the successful applicant will be expected to provide day-to-day management of the phlebotomy team. You will also be expected to deputise for the Phlebotomy Manager and support the phlebotomy supervisor(s).

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.
