We are currently working on a confidential change role for a client in the media space. Due to an ongoing transformation project, this business is about to embark on a redundancy and restructure project and they are looking for an experienced HR Business Partner with strong end to end change experience to take the lead.
This role is for someone who doesn't just advise strategically on change, but rolls their sleeves up and delivers. You will be experienced in running consultation from start to finish, being hands on with comms, and coaching managers through the process. There will be both individual and collective processes running so you will be comfortable with managing multiple projects. As well as being the contact from a people perspective, you will be able to demonstrate high level project management skills, keeping processes running smoothly and managing stakeholders' expectations at a senior level.
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.
