CNC Turner (Operator / Setter / Programmer) - DAYS
£17.00 P/H - £21.00 P/H + Early Finish Friday + Overtime + Programming Training
Brighouse (Near Huddersfield/Bradford)
Are you a CNC Turner (Operator/Setter), looking for a stable, days-based role within a long-established, family-run engineering company that values quality over quantity and invests in its people?
This company is one of Europe's major suppliers of products for the Wire, Rope, and Tube industry. Established for over 30 years, this company supplies high-value, precision components to customers worldwide.
Due to replacement, they are looking to add a CNC Turner to their close-knit team. You'll be working on low-volume, high-precision bespoke components (typically batches of 10s and 20s), machining tool steel and hardened steels from customer drawings using Fanuc-controlled CNC methods. While CAD/CAM experience is beneficial, strong operator/setter experience is equally valued, with full CAD/CAM training available for the right person.
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.
