About the vacancy:

People Advisor Opportunities – Two Exciting Roles Available!

Ready to take the next step in your HR career? We're looking for two People Advisors to join our fantastic People Team at Hedyn, supporting our colleagues and leaders to create great workplace experiences while helping drive organisational success.

  • 🏡 Homes & Communities People Advisor – partnering with our Homes & Communities directorate, providing practical, people-focused HR support across a diverse range of services.
  • 💼 Resources People Advisor – primarily supporting our Resources directorate and working closely with our Recruitment Specialist, offering a unique blend of HR and recruitment responsibilities. It's a brilliant opportunity for someone who enjoys employee relations and people advisory work but also wants to be involved in attracting and hiring great talent.

In both roles, you'll act as a trusted advisor to managers and colleagues, providing expert guidance on employee relations matters including absence, performance, disciplinary and grievance cases. You'll also support organisational change projects, including restructures, team reshaping initiatives and change programmes, helping managers navigate change with confidence and empathy.

You'll use workforce data and insights to identify trends, support wellbeing and engagement initiatives, contribute to HR projects and policy development, and work collaboratively across the People Team to deliver an outstanding colleague experience.

If you're a proactive, relationship-focused HR professional who loves solving problems, building trusted partnerships and making a real impact, we'd love to hear from you.

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.
