Are you currently an experience nurse, District Nurse Locality Lead or an Advanced District Nurse Specialist looking for your next leadership opportunity?
As part of this transformation around the centralisation of the Triage Desk, we are recruiting for a new permanent District Nursing Lead for the Triage Desk.
This role offers a unique chance to shape and lead a newly established team within the District Nursing service, driving forward the triage function and enhancing service delivery. Based in Abingdon and part of the South localities leadership team, we’re seeking a self-motivated and flexible individual with strong leadership and communication skills, and a passion for service development. If you're ready to take the next step in your career and help define the future of district nursing triage, we’d love to hear from you.
Key Responsibilities:
- To provide strong, integrated clinical leadership and management of the District Nursing Duty Desk team.
- To lead on the educational agenda in the area, and to lead on specific educational work streams.
- To lead on service development in the District Nursing team, which will be particularly important for a new team without established ways of working.
- To act as a conduit between the integrated leadership team and the District Nursing team.
- To be accountable for the management, development and supervision of identified staff within the team.
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.
