It's more than a job

As part of the HR team at Kuehne+Nagel, you will help build careers, nurture talent, and empower people to succeed. Your work doesn’t stop at HR - it drives the entire supply chain forward. By attracting and developing the right people, you ensure that our operations run smoothly, so medical equipment reaches hospitals on time, toys arrive in stores for the holidays, and fresh flowers make it to local florists. Every great logistics solution starts with great people - and that’s where you come in.

Shape the future of rewards and recognition. As our Total Rewards Partner, you will be the trusted reward expert for the UK, partnering with HR and business leaders to deliver competitive, compliant, and impactful compensation and benefits programs. Working closely with global Total Rewards teams, you will help bring our global reward strategy to life locally while continuously improving the employee experience.

How you create impact

  • Act as the primary Total Rewards contact for the UK organisation.
  • Implement and continuously improve compensation, benefits, and reward programs in line with global frameworks.
  • Provide expert guidance on compensation, benefits, incentives, job evaluations, and reward policies.
  • Manage annual bonus processes, bonus plan assignments, and reward-related governance activities.
  • Support compensation analysis, international transfers, and incentive calculations.
  • Ensure compliance with local legislation, tax requirements, and governance standards.
  • Partner with global Total Rewards teams to implement strategic reward initiatives and manage local adaptations.
  • Monitor market trends and identify opportunities to enhance reward programs and employee value proposition

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.
