HR Hub Advisor
At Severn Trent, our people are at the heart of everything we do. We’re in the top 5% of utility companies worldwide for employee engagement, and we’re equally proud of our strong Glassdoor score — reflecting how much our people love working here.
Join us to make a positive impact on the environment and our communities, while being valued and supported in a truly inclusive workplace.
If you want to do more, because you care, we want you on our team.

You'll also play an important role in continuously improving our HR services, ensuring processes are efficient, accurate, and customer-focused.

- Deliver a responsive and personalised HR service, aiming to resolve queries at first point of contact.
- Provide guidance and support to employees and managers on HR policies, processes, and employee relations matters.
- Process employee lifecycle transactions, including flexible working requests, maternity leave, organisational changes, and leavers.
- Support managers with probation reviews, performance management, and absence processes, helping to build capability across the business.
- Review and assess employee relations cases, escalating complex matters to specialist teams where appropriate.
- Maintain accurate organisational structures and employee records within HR systems.
- Administer payroll activities, including resolving pay queries and supporting payroll accuracy through reporting and analysis.
- Support change and transformation activities, including restructures, TUPE transfers, and changes to terms and conditions.
- Provide advice on reward and benefits queries.
- Ensure compliance with GDPR requirements, including handling Subject Access Requests.
- Maintain HR documentation, process maps, and knowledge materials to support continuous improvement.
- Build strong relationships with stakeholders across the business and contribute to enhancing the overall employee experience.
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.
