About the Role

If you're a Senior Instrument Technician ready to step up into real ownership of maintenance, safety, and plant performance, this is a live operational site where that responsibility is genuinely on offer.

This permanent opportunity is with an established operator in the energy sector seeking someone to take charge of day-to-day maintenance delivery and plant reliability on a live site.

About the Site

This is a major site within the energy security infrastructure, operating at a high tempo year-round. The plant follows a seasonal cycle—building up capacity during quieter months and running at peak performance during high-demand winter periods. There is a constant pipeline of maintenance, shutdown, and improvement work to maintain output, alongside ongoing investment in the plant's future. This results in evolving challenges for the maintenance and engineering teams as the plant scales.

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.
