Computer Numerical Control Machinist

The Company

Our client is a well-established precision engineering manufacturer producing high-quality, low-volume components for a range of highly regulated industries. With continued investment in machinery, people, and continuous improvement, they offer a modern manufacturing environment and excellent long-term career prospects.

The Role

Due to continued growth, they are looking to recruit an experienced CNC Machinist to join their machine shop. This is a hands-on role involving the programming, setting, and operation of CNC machine tools, manufacturing precision components to engineering drawings within a low-volume, high-quality production environment.

This will be on a double day shift pattern.

Key Responsibilities

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.
