HR Business Partner

£50,000 + Company Car + Benefits

Field Based | Multi-Site Retail

Zachary Daniels are partnering with a well-known UK retailer to recruit an experienced HR Business Partner to support their retail estate.

This is a brilliant opportunity for a commercially minded HRBP who loves being out in the business, building relationships with operational leaders and really understanding what is happening across their stores.

You'll partner closely with Area Managers and Store Leadership teams, supporting them to get the very best from their people whilst helping to shape and deliver the wider people agenda.

This is a field-based role with the expectation that you'll spend a minimum of 3 days per week within stores, so you'll need to enjoy being visible, hands-on and close to the operation.

What you'll be doing:

  • Partnering with Area Managers and Store Leaders to translate commercial priorities into clear people plans
  • Acting as a trusted advisor across workforce planning, organisational design and capability
  • Coaching and developing leaders to build high-performing and engaged teams
  • Leading the talent and performance agenda across your region, including succession planning and identifying future talent
  • Supporting recruitment, onboarding, development and retention across the retail estate
  • Providing pragmatic and commercially focused advice across complex ER and employment law matters
  • Using people data including turnover, absence, engagement and ER trends to identify challenges and drive action
  • Supporting engagement, wellbeing and recognition initiatives across the business
  • Working closely with the wider People team and Shared Services to ensure a consistent colleague experience
  • Leading and supporting wider people projects and change initiatives

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.
