St Albans, Hertfordshire | Office Based
£44,000–£50,000 DOE | Full-time, Permanent
Are you the person who makes things happen?
We’re looking for an Operations Manager to join HEP UK and play a key role in turning ideas, campaigns, and commercial initiatives into successful operational delivery.
You’ll bring structure, pace, and accountability — coordinating people, processes, systems, data, and timelines to make sure initiatives launch smoothly and deliver measurable results.
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.
