People/HR Advisor

People/HR Advisor - 3mth FTC

Location: Manchester on site
Salary: £35,000-£42,000 – Fantastic Benefits

Are you a passionate HR professional who thrives in a fast-paced, people-focused environment? Do you enjoy building strong relationships, coaching managers and making a real impact on the employee experience?

Medlock Partner is delighted to be partnering with our client who is looking for an experienced People Advisor to join a collaborative and forward-thinking People team in the heart of Manchester City Centre on a 3 month FTC.

This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who has solid Employee Relation experience and Employment Law knowledge.

The Job

As a People Advisor, you'll partner with managers across the business, providing expert guidance on all aspects of the employee lifecycle. From managing complex employee relations cases and supporting organisational change to delivering engaging workshops and driving improvements through people insights, you'll play a key role in creating a positive and high-performing workplace.

No two days are the same, making this an ideal opportunity for someone who enjoys variety, autonomy and working as part of a supportive HR team.

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.
