HR Advisor – Food Manufacturing
Hull | £35,000
This is a bit different to your standard HR Advisor role.
You’ll be joining a newly formed HR team with a pretty straightforward objective: raise the profile of HR across the business and become genuine partners to managers — rather than the people who only get called when something has gone wrong.
It’s a busy manufacturing site, so there’ll be plenty to get involved in.
What you'll be doing
- Advising managers on HR and employment law
- Managing investigations, disciplinaries and grievances
- Coaching managers on people management
- Supporting recruitment and onboarding
- Reviewing and improving HR policies
- Assisting with payroll and HR administration
- Supporting audits and compliance
- Helping build a positive, people-focused culture across the site
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.
