The construction of a new Surgical Elective Centre (SEC) is underway at the John Radcliffe Hospital
The SEC will initially provide seven additional operating theatres to reduce elective waiting times and improve patient pathways for many years to come. In addition, the dedicated hybrid theatres will give us a leading edge and enable the most up-to-date procedures to be carried out in suitable facilities, across multiple specialties.
Hybrid theatres combine medical imaging and conventional surgical suites into one treatment space that can be used for both minimally invasive and open surgical procedures. Surgeons can perform imaging, biopsy, diagnosis, and surgery in the operating theatre, which means patients do not need to be moved between an imaging suite and an operating room, and therefore operations can be completed more quickly, and patients’ recovery times are improved. Within the SEC, there will also be a new, purpose-designed, and specified modern sterile services unit that will serve all four of our hospitals.
Alongside the new operating floor, the SEC will be supported by two further change programmes. Firstly, the change to the supply chain of theatre consumable by way of a new partner providing a Kitting & Carting model. Secondly, the Trust will move to a centralised Sterile Services Department servicing all 4 OUH sites. This will be a consolidation of our existing three Sterile Services Departments into one new facility.
Role Overview
Reporting to the SEC Senior OD Consultant, the SEC OD manager will provide specialist Organisational Development expertise with the intent of strengthening leadership practice, building psychological safety, and co-creating a culture grounded in trust, inclusion, and shared purpose.
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.
