We're looking for an HR & Recruitment Officer

Are you an organised and proactive HR professional looking to take the next step in your career? We're looking for an HR & Recruitment Officer to join our People team and play a key role in supporting recruitment, HR administration and the wider employee lifecycle.

This is a varied, hands-on role where you'll work closely with managers and colleagues across the business to ensure our people processes run smoothly while delivering a positive experience for both employees and candidates. If you enjoy building relationships, taking ownership of your work and contributing to a supportive and collaborative workplace, we'd love to hear from you.

About the Candidate

We're looking for a motivated and organised HR professional who enjoys working in a fast-paced environment and is passionate about delivering an excellent employee and candidate experience. You'll have previous experience in an HR administration, HR coordination or recruitment role, with confidence managing multiple priorities and building positive relationships across the business. Strong communication skills, excellent attention to detail and the ability to work independently are essential.

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.
