Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
The post offers the opportunity to build on existing clinical knowledge and to grow service development skills in a supportive environment. There will be opportunity to develop your clinical skills via simulation training and sessions with a practice development respiratory physiotherapist.
Candidates should have good clinical reasoning, time management, and communication skills. You will be involved in the supervision and teaching of Band 5 physiotherapists, Therapy Assistants, and students. The successful candidate would also be expected to contribute to service development within the acute respiratory team which may involve cross site service development.
Continued professional development is encouraged and viewed as integral to providing a quality service for patients. We offer regular supervision, in-service training, and actively promote the personal development of all our therapists. 7-day working for Therapies is under development within the Trust.
