Are you an experienced Registered Nurse with an oncology background looking for your next step within a supportive private hospital environment?
We’re working with a leading independent healthcare provider in Guildford to recruit a Senior Staff Nurse to join their Oncology team.
This is a fantastic opportunity for an experienced nurse who enjoys combining hands-on patient care with supporting and developing junior colleagues. You’ll be joining a friendly, collaborative team within a well-established hospital offering a broad range of complex surgical and specialist services.
The role
As Senior Staff Nurse, you’ll play an important role in delivering high-quality, patient-centred care while providing day-to-day support and supervision to junior members of the nursing team.
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.
