About Us
Fullwoodhead Dairy Supplies Ltd is a well-established, family-run business that has supported the agricultural and dairy industry since 1981. We specialise in the supply, installation, servicing and maintenance of dairy equipment and technology, helping farmers keep their businesses running safely and efficiently.
The Role
We are looking for a practical, reliable and hardworking Dairy Agricultural Engineer to join our service team. This is a varied, hands-on role offering excellent training and long-term development for someone with an interest in agriculture, engineering, machinery or mechanics.
You will work on farms across Scotland and Northern England, installing, servicing, maintaining and repairing dairy equipment. You will also attend breakdowns and emergency call-outs, provide general farm-based support when required and work directly with customers to ensure equipment is operating safely and effectively.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
