About Radnor Hills
Radnor Hills is an award-winning leading soft drinks producer based in beautiful countryside at Heartsease, Knighton, Powys.
Established in 1990 by founder William Watkins, independent and family-owned, Radnor Hills produces over 400 million still, sparkling and flavoured water drinks every year.
Our brands include:
- Radnor Hills spring water
- Heartsease Farm

- Market-leading range of school-approved children’s drinks, Radnor Fizz
Our diverse drinks portfolio is all made using exceptionally pure Welsh spring water sourced from our family farm’s land, just minutes from the production line for maximum freshness.
Environmental sustainability is a cornerstone of our company. We have been a zero-to-landfill site since 2018 with an on-site state-of-the-art recycling facility and an expert in-house team. Our environmental management system and site are certified to ISO 14001 standards.
All of Radnor’s products are fully recyclable:
- Plastic bottles and shrink wraps are 100% recyclable, made up of 30% recycled material
- Cartons are straw-free
- Aluminium cans are infinitely recyclable and sourced within 65 miles of our farm in the Welsh countryside
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.
In 2023, we opened new expanded production facilities, a quality assurance laboratory, and a state-of-the-art office complex. Our £1.8 million investment in a solar farm now delivers 25% of our electricity needs.
