Join a growing manufacturing business where people are at the heart of everything.

We're looking for an experienced HR Officer to become a key member of our team, providing a professional and proactive HR service across the business. This is a varied, hands-on role offering the opportunity to make a genuine impact across employee relations, recruitment, training and HR compliance.

Working closely with senior management, you'll help drive best practice, ensure compliance with UK employment legislation and support the continued development of our people.

The Role

As HR Officer, you'll take ownership of a broad range of HR activities, including:

  • Providing day-to-day HR advice and guidance to managers and employees.
  • Managing employee relations matters including absence management, disciplinary and grievance processes.
  • Coordinating end-to-end recruitment, onboarding and induction activities.
  • Maintaining and developing HR policies, procedures and employee records.
  • Monitoring HR KPIs and supporting continuous improvement initiatives.
  • Coordinating training, competency records and the annual Performance & Development Review process.
  • Supporting Health & Safety initiatives, statutory training and employee wellbeing programmes.
  • Helping organise company events, employee recognition schemes and wider people 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.
