HR Administrator
Dalkia Hinkley Point C
Hinkley Point C is the UK’s first new build nuclear power station in a generation that is critical to the UK NetZero targets.
All roles on the project require key behaviours which support the Zero Harm objective, a questioning attitude, and drive to uphold the standards of safety and quality required by this prestigious project. A committed strong work ethic is essential at all levels.
All candidates are expected to demonstrate their knowledge and experience where possible directly related to the criteria required for the role. It is acknowledged that previous Nuclear based experience will not always be possible, as such supporting with project research and how individual skills may be transferable will be important.
There are opportunities to put together strategic people plans within the nuclear sector, work on wider company people projects, deliver an excellent first-class service to employees and ensure the administration and processes that engulf working life are implemented effectively and fairly.
Summary of Role
The HR Administrator provides comprehensive administrative support to the Human Resources function, supporting the full employee lifecycle from candidate onboarding through to employment administration. The role is responsible for maintaining accurate employee records, managing HR systems and reporting, coordinating onboarding activities, and ensuring compliance with company, client, and regulatory requirements.
Working closely with HR colleagues, hiring managers, employees, and external providers, the post holder will support the timely and efficient onboarding of new starters and staff transfers, maintain data integrity across HR systems, and ensure employee information is accurate, accessible, and audit ready.
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.
