Job Description

HR Adviser

Be the HR Partner Our People Can Rely On

Are you an experienced HR professional who enjoys being hands-on, approachable and solutions-focused? Do you thrive in a role where you can build trusted relationships, solve people challenges and make a tangible difference to the employee experience?

We’re looking for an HR Adviser to support one of our newly acquired Operations & Maintenance contracts, providing a responsive, commercially minded HR service to around 300 employees across 20 locations throughout the UK.

Reporting to the Senior HR Business Partner, you’ll work closely with managers and key stakeholders across the contract, providing practical advice, coaching and support throughout the employee lifecycle.

This is a varied role with plenty of opportunity to make an impact. You’ll be trusted to advise on a broad range of HR matters, support managers through complex situations, and help shape how HR is delivered as the contract continues to grow.

This role is based in our Manchester City Centre offices.


What You’ll Be Doing

Supporting the Employee Journey

  • Manage and support key stages of the employee lifecycle, from offer letters, contracts and pre-employment checks through to onboarding and offboarding.
  • Help ensure employees have a positive, well-organised experience from joining through to leaving the organisation.
  • Provide responsive and practical support to employees and managers on a wide range of HR queries.

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.
