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.
Dispensary is a minimal part of the position here at the Hospital, and the role is predominantly focused on the Ward patient support.
Who We're Looking For
- Pharmacists educated to degree level
- Previous hospital experience preferred; however, training can be provided if not previously worked in a hospital environment
- Current GPhC registration
- Excellent communicator as you will interact with patients on the Ward to find out their pharmaceutical requirements

- 35 days annual leave inclusive of bank holidays
- Employer and employee contributory pension with flexible retirement options
