Welcome to Our Team
We look forward to welcoming you as a newly qualified or currently practising OT. Do you want to be part of a supportive, friendly, and dynamic team dedicated to providing executional care?
You will gain a balance of physical health, community, and hospital-based working in settings working with specialists where you will gain experience and receive full support. You will have the opportunity to enjoy an in-depth learning experience working with caseloads of patients within an MDT. We encourage the development of core OT skills within a supportive environment. We are committed to your growth with a strong focus on teaching and development, including regular in-service training, protected CPD time, and a band 5 peer support group.
Staff are encouraged to develop their full potential as we understand the transition from student to practitioner can be challenging, and we are dedicated to developing your full potential. We believe in a healthy work-life balance and offer flexibility to accommodate your personal and professional needs.
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.
We work collaboratively to create a nurturing and inclusive environment where both patients and staff can thrive.
