About the Role Would you like to be part of an innovative and motivated team whilst developing your career portfolio? Do you share the Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Health Board (CTMUHB) values and passion for improving patient care in Wales?
Pharmacy at CTMUHB thrives on a culture of learning, development, and collaborative working.

The Opportunity CTMUHB is inviting enthusiastic, passionate, and committed pharmacists to join as a Rotational Specialist Pharmacist, supporting pharmacy services across a vibrant region.

- Active participation in the Emergency Duty Service, alongside weekend and bank holiday rotas.
- Support for non-medical prescribing, including possible clinic involvement, ensuring safe, effective, and cost-efficient medicine use for our local population.

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.
