HR Officer

An established and highly regarded independent co-educational day and boarding school in Surrey is looking for an experienced HR Officer to join its friendly HR team. With a new people strategy and a new curriculum to support through a significant period of change, this is a great time to join and make a real difference.

Please note this is an on-site role. Salary up to £40K

The Role

Reporting to the Director of HR, you'll deliver a proactive, generalist HR service to teaching and professional services staff. You'll also work closely with a wider central HR function and partner HR teams across associated schools.

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.
