Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
You’ll spend time with senior leaders, managers and employees across the operation, building relationships and solving problems rather than simply advising from a distance.
About You
We’re looking for a practical, commercially minded HR generalist who enjoys making things happen.
You’ll ideally have experience in a fast-moving operational environment - perhaps manufacturing, FMCG, logistics, distribution, retail, hospitality or a similar setting. You’ll be confident with employee relations and UK employment law, comfortable challenging managers when required and equally comfortable rolling up your sleeves to deal with the day-to-day.
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
Most importantly, you’ll be someone who can bring structure without bureaucracy, improve things without overcomplicating them, and help a growing business professionalise without losing its personality.
The Role
The role is predominantly based in Cheshire but offers hybrid working, and you will have some regular travel to London. My client offers a competitive salary, and a benefits package that includes annual bonus, 25 days annual leave, pension, and free parking.
If you’re looking for a People role where you can make a genuine impact rather than simply maintain the status quo, we’d love to hear from you.
