About the Role:
Be part of a team that makes a difference when it matters most. 14B is a vibrant 28-bed specialty ward caring for patients across Medical Oncology, Radiation Oncology, Rheumatology and Dermatology, supporting them through every stage of their journey from diagnosis and treatment to palliative and end-of-life care.

We are proud of our supportive, experienced and close-knit team culture and are seeking enthusiastic, compassionate and dedicated nurses who thrive in a fast-paced acute environment while bringing positivity, resilience and a sense of humour to their practice.
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.
