The right hire doesn't just fill a vacancy. Here, it can change someone's life.
Join Positive Futures as our new HR Administrator (Recruitment) and become part of the team that finds, welcomes and sets up the people who transform lives every day. For 30 years, we've been dedicated to supporting people with learning disabilities, acquired brain injuries and autism, and it all starts with getting the right people for the right roles.
This is a fast-paced, varied role at the heart of our Talent Acquisition Team. You'll give candidates a smooth, professional experience from first advert to first day, and give hiring managers fast, reliable support throughout recruitment and onboarding, keeping our systems, records and documentation accurate, compliant and running like clockwork.
- Real impact from day one: Support end-to-end recruitment administration through our ATS, from advert through to start date, with a team buddy and 2-week induction to set you up properly.
- Variety that keeps you sharp: Move between recruitment coordination, compliance checks, contract preparation, workforce records and reporting or supporting employee relations, engagement or other areas. No two days look the same.
- A supportive, high-performing team: Join a dedicated HR Team with regular manager support and genuine opportunities for training, professional development and career progression.

About The Role
This is where HR administration meets real impact. Every accurate record and every well-handled query gets someone closer to starting a job that matters.
You'll report to the Talent Acquisition Lead and sit within the Talent Acquisition Team, supporting our wider Talent & Engagement function. Your core focus is candidate and recruitment administration, but you'll also get exposure to wider HR administration, including workforce records, payroll administration, employee relations, engagement, and general HR queries, giving you a genuinely rounded grounding in HR.
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.
Day to day, you'll administer recruitment processes end-to-end: adverts, interviews, communications and records, keeping candidates informed and supported right through to their first day. You'll support pre-employment checks and compliance, including references, vetting, right to work and professional registration, and prepare contracts and documentation to a high standard. You'll also produce recruitment metrics and reporting, such as time to hire and vacancy pipeline data, that help us keep improving how we recruit.
You'll be a first point of contact for HR queries from managers, staff and candidates, resolving what you can and routing the rest to the right person, building the judgement and confidence to do more over time. And because workforce records, payroll administration and process improvement all sit close to this role, you'll build a broad, transferable HR skill set that opens doors for the future.
