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.
About the Role
There is a full resuscitation room, minors/majors cubicles and a four bedded observation unit. We were the first children's ED in the country to have a dedicated sensory cubicle for children with additional needs.
This is your opportunity to work within the children's emergency nursing team and continue to develop your career. You will be working in a bright purpose built children's hospital with support from the children's nursing team and paediatric consultants. The CED team has a focus on multi-disciplinary learning in the department.
We are looking for enthusiastic, dynamic, energetic children's nurses with a skill for prioritising, delivering and organising emergency patient care. You will have a proactive and positive approach, with evidence of excellent clinical, teaching, managerial and inter-personal skills to lead, work alongside and motivate our multi-disciplinary team.
