Our Client
Shape the Future of a Modern Manufacturing Business!
Delighted to be partnering with a well-established, privately owned international manufacturing group known for its long-term, values-led approach and significant investment in people, technology and operations.
An exciting opportunity has arisen for an HR Business Partner to support a key northern region, covering a cluster of strategically important sites during a period of transformation and growth.
What You'll Do
This is far more than a traditional HRBP role. You’ll operate within a fast-paced, operational setting where:
- Investment and automation are transforming how sites operate
- Workforces vary significantly in culture and maturity
- Leadership capability is mixed, creating real scope for impact
- A strong health, safety and wellbeing culture is 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.
