Company Description

Medicine moves forward here. So will you.

Ergomed is a specialist clinical research organization focused on rare disease and select oncology indications. We focus on the most complex trials, the studies where experience, judgement, and rigorous operational accountability make the biggest difference. We partner with small to midsize biotech companies to move promising therapies through early phase development, so they reach the patients sooner.

We choose complex work on purpose. Rare disease and oncology trials carry real operational risk, and our people are experts at reducing it, protecting timelines, data quality and the experience of sites and patients at the same time. It is demanding, meaningful work, and no one here forgets that patients cannot wait.

That is why culture matters to us as much as capability. We have built a collaborative, international team where people share ideas, grow their careers and are trusted to take ownership early. With colleagues across North America, South America, Europe, Asia and Australia, we value teamwork, flexibility and a real commitment to work-life balance, because good science comes from people who feel supported.

If you want work with purpose, the agility to make an impact and a team that cares about the people behind the work as much as the work itself, we would love to hear from you.

Job Description

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.
