Joining Acorn, a leading provider of engineering and compliance services, with over 40 years of experience delivering expertise across London and the South East. Known for trust, technical excellence, and enduring partnerships—we place people at the heart of everything we do.

The Role: Building Services Engineer

Core Purpose: Maintain building systems through planned preventative maintenance (PPMs) at commercial sites in Milton Keynes and surrounding areas.


Our Culture

A professional, inclusive, and collaborative environment fostered by:

  • A structured support system (dedicated helpdesk, administration, and experienced contract managers).
  • Clear communication, client relationship-building, and personal accountability.
  • Safety, presentation, and meticulous craftsmanship as foundational values—critical for both client satisfaction and employee well-being.

Values in Action:

  • Employee-led solutions with the backing of technical expertise.
  • Held to high standards while maximising job autonomy.

Responsibilities

  • Execute diligent PPM schedules across assigned commercial sites.
  • Oversee mechanical systems—HVAC, heating, ventilation, and associated plant.
  • Maintain compliance with health and safety protocols and site regulations.
  • Develop and sustain professional client relationships.
  • Ensure efficiently managed workloads, adherence to workflows, and diligent record-keeping.

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.
