CNC Grinder

£36,000

Yolk Recruitment is exclusively managing a new opportunity for a CNC Grinder to join a growing team, working on a two shift rota, mornings and afternoons.

This long-standing engineering business is a key supplier to a global AAA client base, with customers relying on their services for over 20 years and a strong long term order book continuing to provide security for the future.

This is what you'll be doing:

  • Programme, set and operate CNC and manual grinding machinery, including surface and cylindrical grinding equipment.
  • Manufacture high-precision components in line with engineering drawings, specifications and required tolerances.
  • Work with a range of specialist materials, including Inconel, duplex and tungsten carbide.
  • Inspect your own work using a range of metrology equipment, completing first-off inspections and all required documentation.
  • Support the wider production team through basic machine maintenance, maintaining high housekeeping and safety standards, and providing guidance and training where required.

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.
