Come and join us at the new Midland Metropoliton Univerity Hospital!

An exciting opportunity has arisen

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Band 7 Service Manager for Medicine and Emergency Care to join our existing team of motivated and innovative staff within the Group at Sandwell and West Birmingham Hospitals NHS Trust.

You will need to demonstrate:

  • Experience of successful operational management
  • Knowledge of clinical services
  • Strong leadership skills
  • Proven track record of delivering results

You must have current/recent experience working with clinical and operational teams in a large complex acute health care environment with evidence of delivering quality and safety improvement and ensuring there is a strong governance framework supporting safe clinical practice.

This will be a dynamic role to support the operational priorities of the Stroke and Neurology Specialties, while we work through the recovery of our services following the successful transition to the new state of the art Midland Metropolitan University Hospital.

Key Responsibilities

  • To ensure the provision and delivery of high quality efficient and effective services within the areas of responsibility.
  • In conjunction with clinical and managerial colleagues work to identify and develop opportunities to improve service delivery, in qualitative and efficiency terms, including redesign of services to deliver new models of care.
  • Responsible for the delivery of agreed service targets and standards within the Division and taking responsibility for the strategic management of the Division's Waiting List.
  • Develop and maintain effective working relationships with clinicians in the Trust.
  • Ensure that activity and other data is captured and analysed in a timely manner. Produce performance reports for the group, for-casting trends and developments that may affect service delivery and where appropriate feed this back to the relevant specialty and directorate teams for action.
  • Initiate, promote, implement and monitor quality initiatives, approved by the Divisional Management Team.
  • Prepare regular and ad hoc reports for the Speciality Lead or the Divisional Management Team on performance.

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.
