Overview
Ever wondered what goes on behind the scenes of a great workplace? This is your opportunity to find out.
We're looking for a Talent Operations Coordinator to join our Talent team. This is an operations-focused role, supporting the processes, programmes, and employee experience that help our people thrive. While you'll work closely with colleagues across the business, this is not a recruitment or Talent Acquisition role.
We're looking for someone who is organised, proactive, and enjoys bringing structure to fast-moving environments. Whether you're early in your career, changing direction, or looking to build experience within HR and people operations, this role offers broad exposure across the employee lifecycle.
Responsibilities
What you’ll be doing
You’ll be the friendly, reliable first point of contact for our people, helping make work life run smoothly. That includes:
- Being a go‑to person for employee questions (pay, benefits, holidays, systems, life stuff)
- Supporting the full employee lifecycle — onboarding new starters, offboarding leavers, contract updates, and different types of leave
- Keeping employee data accurate and compliant (GDPR, Right to Work checks, joiners & leavers)
- Supporting employee relations meetings (including note‑taking and follow‑ups)
- Working closely with Payroll & Benefits to make sure everyone gets paid correctly and on time
- Coordinating probation and performance review processes end‑to‑end
- Tracking holiday and absence data and flagging anything that needs attention
- Processing invoices and POs when required
- Helping improve how we do things — spotting what could work better and actually helping change it
- Supporting wider Talent and culture projects across Publicis Groupe
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.
You’ll learn how HR really works, not just the theory.
Qualifications
This role is for you if
- You’re naturally organised and like keeping things on track
- You’re a clear, confident communicator (written and spoken)
- You handle information with discretion, trust, and integrity
- You care about getting the details right and delivering quality work
- You enjoy working with people and collaborating with different teams
- You’re comfortable in a fast‑paced environment where priorities can change
- You’re curious, resilient, and open to learning as you go
- You’re confident using Microsoft Office (Excel, Word, Outlook, PowerPoint)
- You’re interested in HR, people, culture — and ideally the marketing/creative world
