Are you an experienced Assembler, Production Technician, or Manufacturing Operative with a good eye for detail and a hands-on approach?

Would you like to join an established engineering and manufacturing business where quality is at the heart of everything they do?

We're supporting a leading manufacturing business in Fareham who are looking for an Assembler to join their Test Department on a permanent day shift.

Offering a salary of £29,000 per annum, this is a great opportunity for someone with practical assembly experience who enjoys working within a quality-focused engineering environment.

What's the role all about?

As an Assembler within the Test Department, you'll be responsible for assembling components and products ready for testing, ensuring everything is completed accurately and to the required quality standards.

You'll work closely with colleagues across Test, Production, and Quality, following engineering instructions and established processes to ensure products are assembled correctly and ready for the next stage of manufacture.

This is a hands-on role where attention to detail, quality, and following processes accurately are essential.

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.
