Scientific Affairs Manager
Salary: £45K–£50K
Position Type: Permanent
Location: Remote (UK-based)
We're delighted to be recruiting on behalf of one of our long-standing clients - a highly respected UK-based professional membership organisation operating internationally within the healthcare and scientific community.
This is a unique opportunity to join a close-knit, collaborative team where you'll play a pivotal role in advancing research, supporting clinical excellence and working alongside leading experts from across Europe.
You'll oversee a varied portfolio including research grants, awards, clinical practice initiatives and specialist committees, ensuring projects are delivered to a high standard while building strong relationships with senior clinicians, researchers and volunteers. This role would suit someone with experience in research management, grants administration or scientific programme delivery who enjoys balancing strategic thinking with hands-on operational delivery.
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.
