About HSO

HSO is a leading global Microsoft partner specialising in business transformation powered by the Microsoft Cloud. With deep expertise across Microsoft Dynamics 365, Microsoft Azure, Data and AI, and the Microsoft Power Platform, we help organisations modernise their operations, unlock data-driven insights and embrace innovation.

Our people are at the heart of our success. We offer a collaborative and supportive environment where colleagues can develop their skills, contribute ideas and make a meaningful impact for our customers.

The role

As a Resource Coordinator, you will support the effective allocation of colleagues across HSO’s customer projects and service lines.

Working closely with the Resource Manager, Project Directors, Project Managers and Team Heads, you will help ensure that projects have the right skills and capacity in place at the right time. You will also work with the recruitment team to provide visibility of current and future hiring requirements.

This is a highly collaborative role that requires strong organisation, clear communication and the confidence to work with stakeholders across the business.

What you’ll do

  • Support the Resource Manager with the allocation of colleagues across projects and service lines.
  • Help ensure project teams are appropriately resourced to begin work at the agreed time.
  • Identify potential resourcing gaps, risks or conflicts and raise them promptly with the relevant stakeholders.
  • Work with Project Managers to understand and respond to changes in project resource requirements.
  • Maintain accurate and up-to-date information on colleagues’ skills, experience and availability.
  • Update resource information to reflect new starters, internal changes and leavers.
  • Review weekly forecasts across service lines to ensure that resource demand is accurately recorded.
  • Monitor utilisation levels and highlight where colleagues may be overallocated or underutilised.
  • Support reporting on resource capacity, demand, availability and utilisation for senior stakeholders.
  • Contribute to forecasting and demand-planning activities using systems such as Microsoft Dynamics 365 Project Operations and other relevant reporting tools.
  • Work with Team Heads to identify suitable people for projects, balancing skills, availability, development needs and location.
  • Help minimise unnecessary travel when considering project assignments.
  • Work with the recruitment team to communicate current and anticipated hiring priorities.
  • Identify opportunities to improve resource-allocation, reporting and demand-planning processes.
  • Provide additional coordination and administrative support to the Resource Manager when required.

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.
