If you believe that nursing is about making a real difference to patient’s lives then clinical research can provide a stimulating and rewarding career for you.
As a member of the core clinical research facility (CRF) nursing team you will have opportunities to develop skills and knowledge in both research and cancer nursing delivering new and innovative treatments within the context of clinical trials.
Previous experience of research and or oncology nursing is desirable but not essential as we offer comprehensive training within a competency framework.
An ability to work evenings, night shifts and occasional weekends is a requirement of the job.
Applications welcome from enthusiastic, motivated nurses who are flexible, display initiative and possess excellent communication skills.
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.
