Job Opportunity at Royal Berkshire NHS Foundation Trust
The position is based at the Royal Berkshire NHS Foundation Trust, a major acute medical and surgical provider for Reading, Wokingham, and West Berkshire, with specialist renal services extending across the region. The Trust is a large employer, delivering over 600,000 patient care episodes annually.
The Trust operates a successful AMU for acute medical and surgical GP referrals, managed by a multidisciplinary team. The AMU includes assessment beds, higher monitoring beds, and is adjacent to the Emergency Department and Radiology. Cardiac emergencies and stroke thrombolysis are managed with dedicated consultant presence.
Role Overview
The successful candidate will join the renal team, working primarily on the Victoria Ward and supporting renal and general medical inpatients, as well as patients referred by other specialties. The Berkshire Kidney Unit offers acute haemodialysis and plasma exchange, and the role includes opportunities to attend specialty clinics (e.g., transplant, vasculitis).
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.
