Senior HR Advisor – Manufacturing
I’m partnering with a leading manufacturing organisation to recruit an experienced Senior HR Advisor to join its busy manufacturing site in Kirkham.
This is a fantastic opportunity for a hands-on HR professional who enjoys working in a fast-paced, operational environment and wants a role where they can genuinely influence, coach and support managers while contributing to the wider people agenda.
You’ll work closely with the HR team and operational leadership, providing a high-quality HR service across the site and supporting the delivery of both day-to-day people priorities and broader strategic initiatives.
The Role
As Senior HR Advisor, you’ll build strong relationships across the manufacturing operation, becoming a trusted point of contact for managers and colleagues.
Your responsibilities will include:
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.
