Help Shape the Employee Experience at a Leading University
Are you an experienced HR professional who thrives on solving complex people challenges, influencing senior stakeholders, and driving positive organisational change?
We're looking for a People Partner to join a collaborative and forward-thinking People Services team. This is an opportunity to play a key role in supporting managers and leaders across a large, diverse organisation, delivering expert advice on employee relations, organisational change, workforce planning and people strategy.
No two days will be the same. You'll partner with stakeholders across a wide range of functions, helping to create an outstanding workplace culture while ensuring best practice, compliance and exceptional employee experiences.
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.
