13-Month Fixed Term Contract (Immediate start)

Things change quickly here. That's exactly why you'll love it.

We're looking for an experienced Resource Manager who thrives when priorities shift, demand changes and new challenges land on their desk.

Someone who doesn't panic when the plan changes.

Someone who enjoys working things out.

Someone who can look at a complex resourcing challenge and immediately start thinking about solutions.

At Korn Ferry, our Resource Managers play a critical role in helping the business respond to client demand, deploy talent effectively and keep our consultants engaged, utilised and performing at their best.

No two days are the same.

One minute you'll be helping shape staffing plans for a significant new opportunity. The next you'll be working with leaders across the business to solve a critical resourcing challenge, identify capability gaps or find creative ways to meet changing client needs.

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.
