HR Manager
Salary: £60,000–£70,000 DOE
Location: Worcestershire
Working pattern: Full-time onsite. There is no hybrid flexibility, although some flexibility around working hours may be considered for the right candidate.
I’m recruiting an HR Manager for a growing manufacturing business based in Worcestershire.
Reporting into the Group HR Director, this is a broad generalist role with responsibility for leading the site HR team and taking ownership of the day-to-day HR function, including employee relations, absence and sickness management, recruitment and the wider transactional workload.
Alongside the operational responsibilities, there is a significant opportunity to deliver HR projects and improvements across systems, processes, culture and the wider people agenda.
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.

Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
This is a unionised manufacturing environment with a diverse range of processes and a sizeable operational workforce, so stakeholder management and credibility on the shop floor are key.
This isn’t an HR role that will be delivered from behind a desk. You’ll spend a good proportion of your time out within the operation, engaging with employees and managers, understanding what is happening at ground level and identifying where HR can make a practical difference.
I’m looking for a strong HR generalist with experience working within manufacturing or a comparable blue-collar environment such as logistics, warehousing or industrial operations. You’ll need to be comfortable managing complex ER matters, working with operational leaders and engaging effectively with employees at every level.
