The Opportunity

We are seeking an experienced Senior Business Partner to play a key role in shaping workforce strategy, driving talent acquisition excellence, and supporting organisational transformation within a complex and dynamic environment.

This is an exciting opportunity to influence critical workforce decisions, partner with senior leaders, and deliver innovative people solutions that enable long-term business success.

Key Responsibilities

Strategic Workforce Planning

  • Ensure the right balance of permanent employees, contingent workers, and delivery partners to meet workforce objectives.
  • Leverage workforce data, analytics, and insights to anticipate future capability requirements and address skills gaps proactively.

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.
