⚡ Electrical Bias Maintenance Engineer (With a Big E, small m)

Keep our factory moving. Solve problems. Make a real impact.

If you're the kind of engineer who enjoys getting to the root of a fault, thrives on keeping machinery running and takes pride in fixing things properly the first time, we'd like to meet you.

At Manthorpe Building Products, we're passionate about manufacturing innovative building products that are used on construction projects across the UK. Behind every product is a team of skilled engineers keeping our production lines running safely and efficiently—and we're looking for another great engineer to join us.

As part of the Genuit Group, you'll be joining a business that offers the security of a well-established company while investing in its people, its equipment and its future. We're big believers that the best ideas come from the people doing the job every day, so if you enjoy improving processes and making things work better, you'll fit right in.

So, what's the job?

No two days are quite the same. One minute you'll be fault-finding an electrical issue that's brought a production line to a standstill. The next, you'll be carrying out planned maintenance, installing new equipment or working with colleagues on improvements that make the factory safer, smarter and more efficient.

You'll be the person people rely on to keep production moving—someone who enjoys solving problems, thinking on their feet and getting stuck in.

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.
