Head of HR

Greater Manchester

Office-based

Up to £70,000 + excellent benefits

Our client is a privately owned property developer with an outstanding reputation across the North West. The business is delivering some of the region’s most exciting residential, commercial, and hospitality developments, combining contemporary new-build apartment schemes with the sensitive redevelopment and regeneration of prestigious listed buildings.

With a fully integrated sales and lettings agency, as well as a hospitality division, the company is committed to providing a best-in-class experience for both tenants and investors, ensuring exceptional service throughout the property lifecycle.

The Opportunity

As part of the continued evolution of the senior leadership team, we are seeking an exceptional Head of HR to lead and shape the people agenda during a period of significant growth.

This is a broad, hands-on leadership role with responsibility for ensuring that all elements of the people strategy are aligned to support the company’s ambitious growth plans. Culture is central to the organisation’s success, and the successful candidate will play a key role in embedding and strengthening a high-performing, people-focused environment.

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.
