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.
We are seeking to recruit people who are committed to delivering outstanding patient care, taking pride in what they do and are reliable, hardworking and willing to learn and develop. A caring, professional manner and excellent communication skills are essential. You must work well in a high pressure environment and have the ability to adapt to challenging situations.
The post will be based in Acute Medicine for the Elderly West (Ward 33), which is a 21 bedded unit that supports a 48-72 hour patient journey. This area provides inpatient care which is patient-centred and aims to maximise each patient’s potential for recovery, supported by an excellent Multi Disciplinary Team.
