Join our People Team

Are you passionate about HR and looking for the next step in your career?

We're looking for an organised and proactive HR & Recruitment Administrator to join our People team at AutoProtect Group. This is an excellent opportunity for someone who has already gained experience in an HR administration role and has started studying towards their CIPD Level 3 qualification.

This is a varied role where no two days are the same. You'll be the first point of contact for HR enquiries, manage our HR inbox, support recruitment across the business and ensure our HR administration is delivered accurately and efficiently.

If you're someone who enjoys building relationships, thrives on organisation and wants to continue developing a career in HR, we'd love to hear from you.


What you'll be doing

  • Managing the HR inbox, responding to or directing employee and manager enquiries.
  • Providing HR administration throughout the employee lifecycle, including contracts, offer letters, contractual changes and references.
  • Supporting recruitment from advert through to onboarding, including interview coordination and candidate communications.
  • Coordinating pre-employment checks, including Right to Work, references and SMCR screening where applicable.
  • Administering employee benefits, including pension, life assurance and healthcare.
  • Maintaining accurate employee records within our HR system.
  • Producing HR reports and management information.
  • Supporting probation reviews and Occupational Health administration.
  • Assisting with annual pay review and bonus administration.
  • Supporting HR projects and continuous improvement initiatives.
  • Taking meeting notes where required.
  • Ensuring all administration is completed accurately and confidentially.

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.
