We’re hiring a hands-on People Business Partner based in the UK (with the ability to work in the London office for 1-2 days/week) to support and partner with managers and empower employees across the UK and APAC. As we continue to build and grow, this role will play a key part in shaping employee experience. You’ll help lead and deliver people initiatives that foster engagement, development, and a strong, inclusive culture.

Your Impact

As part of our global People Business Partner Team, you’ll work closely with leaders and employees to support Thrive’s growth and help make it a great place to work. Reporting to the Sr. People Business Partner Manager, you’ll contribute to key People initiatives around talent assessment, management, employee engagement and experience.

What You’ll Do at Thrive

Help Thrive Become Future-Ready

You'll take a hands-on and consultative approach to solving problems and supporting organizational success by

  • Acting as a talent advisor for leaders and employees — connecting business goals to people strategies.
  • Helping leaders make better decisions and build high-performing, resilient teams.
  • Applying structured problem-solving and data-informed insights (both qualitative and quantitative) to guide decisions.
  • Supporting leaders with organizational design — helping to ensure teams are structured with the right roles and skillsets to support business objectives.

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.
