Paediatric Senior Clinical Fellow

The post provides general paediatric cover on the Tier 2 rota (equivalent to ST3 and above) working on the paediatric inpatient wards, in outpatients and supporting our paediatric emergency department. Supervision and support will be provided at all times by the consultant team.
This post would ideally suit an existing RCPCH trainee looking for an Out Of Programme Experience (OOPE) or a Post CCT Fellow seeking a supported step up to Consultant or those with significant Paediatric experience seeking to obtain portfolio progression.
We have a particular strategic need for those with interests in epilepsy, adolescent care, eating disorders, renal and paediatric emergency medicine. This should not preclude motivated and keen candidates from applying and we are also interested to hear from those with other interests as well as developing other areas of service in management, quality improvement.
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.
