About the Organisation:

A well-established, purpose-led organisation within the education sector is seeking a temporary HR Officer to join its remote Human Resources team.

  • Provide practical HR guidance and advice to managers and colleagues, in line with policies and procedures and good HR practice.
  • Support the HR team with organisational change activity, working particularly closely with the Senior HR Officer.
  • Pick up generalist people/employee relations matters where required and appropriate.
  • Support the Director of HR with data, reporting and preparation of the annual Board report.
  • Provide wider HR team support where priorities require it.

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.
