Our Health practice provides analytical and research services for organisations across the life sciences and healthcare industries. Our team brings together clinicians, statisticians, epidemiologists, health economists, bioinformaticians and health data scientists alongside our established actuarial, analytics and technology teams to deliver new solutions to the fundamental challenges in health.
Our team’s mission is to help move health systems from importers of illness to exporters of health and to support our clients to deliver value to patients. We have already developed a track record for leading approaches to real world evidence generation, drug safety, health economic modelling, evidence strategy and market access. We have been growing the team quickly in response to the demand we are seeing for the service offerings we have developed and are now looking for a Real World Evidence (RWE) Associate Consultant to join our team of experts and strengthen our capabilities in this area.
What's the role?
You will play a key role in the design and analysis of studies using real world healthcare data, such as electronic healthcare records, registries and claims databases.

Your background may be as an epidemiologist focusing on study design and reporting, statistician focusing on analytical methods or data scientist focused on programming – we do not expect you to be an expert in all of these areas.
This is an excellent opportunity for you to join a dynamic team at an exciting time in its growth!

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.
