HR Manager, UK
6-month Fixed-Term Contract | Hybrid | UK
The Role
We’re looking for an experienced HR Manager to take ownership of the UK people agenda and be a trusted partner to our leadership team and managers.
This is a hands-on role with plenty of autonomy and variety. Strong employee relations experience is essential, as you’ll take the lead on disciplinary, grievance, performance, absence and capability matters, while providing practical, commercially minded HR advice.
You’ll have the opportunity to shape how we do HR in the UK, improve our processes and support the business as we continue to grow and evolve.
What You’ll Do
- Be the go-to HR partner for managers and employees across the UK.
- Own end-to-end employee relations, including disciplinary, grievance, performance, absence and capability cases.
- Advise and coach managers through people challenges and formal processes.
- Keep our HR policies and practices aligned with UK employment legislation.
- Manage the employee journey from recruitment through to offboarding.
- Support payroll, benefits, pensions and employee records.
- Lead and improve UK HR processes, systems and ways of working.
- Support performance, reward, talent and employee engagement initiatives.
- Support restructures, redundancies, TUPE and acquisitions where required.
- Help integrate new teams and build scalable people practices as we grow.
- Make smart use of technology, automation and AI to improve HR delivery.
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.

- Strong, up-to-date knowledge of UK employment legislation.
- Significant employee relations experience across disciplinary, grievance, performance, absence and capability matters.
- Experience working autonomously in a standalone or lean HR environment.
- Strong coaching, influencing and stakeholder management skills.
- Excellent communication, organisation and attention to detail.
- A pragmatic approach to HR, with good judgement around risk and confidentiality.
- Experience with HR systems, payroll and employee data.
