About the Role

You’ll help us make health happen by:
- Clinically responsible for the ongoing care of residents within the care home.

- Ensuring all units comply with CQC standards of care, taking appropriate action to maintain a safe environment for residents.

- Developing the strategy and direction for the village.
- Creating and developing strong relationships with LAs, CQC and Primary Care Trust commissioners, always acting as a trusted healthcare partner.
Key Skills / Qualifications
The successful applicant needs to be clinical and should possess or be willing to work towards obtaining a management qualification such as the Registered Manager’s Award.
- A leader with experience of leading and developing a care setting.
- Comprehensive experience in elderly care.
- Approachable and open, a confident leader who can empower our team to deliver the highest standards of care.
- Passionate about caring for others, putting our residents at the heart of everything you do.
- The ability to lead by example, sharing your clinical knowledge on quality improvement and cultivating an open and honest culture amongst your 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.
