Mechanical Engineer – Pumps & Dewatering

Workshop & Field Based | Pumps | Mechanical & Electrical Engineering

Are you a hands-on engineer who enjoys fault finding, repairing equipment and solving problems out in the field?

I’m recruiting for an established specialist within the pumping and dewatering industry, looking to strengthen its engineering team with an experienced Mechanical Engineer.

The Role

You'll be responsible for keeping a fleet of pumps and associated equipment operating safely, reliably and efficiently.

  • Diagnosing faults
  • Servicing
  • Maintaining
  • Repairing and overhauling pumps and ancillary equipment, both within the depot and at customer sites
  • Working with electric submersible pumps, electrically driven pumps, 415V control panels and associated electrical components, alongside the wider mechanical fleet
  • Planned preventative maintenance
  • Breakdown response
  • Completing service and QHSE documentation
  • Ensuring work is consistently delivered to a high standard
  • Supporting and developing less experienced engineers and apprentices within the team

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.

  • Strong mechanical fault-finding, servicing and repair experience
  • Experience using appropriate tooling and diagnostic equipment

Why Consider It?

This isn't a role where you'll spend every day standing at the same machine doing the same job.

You'll get a combination of workshop engineering, field service, fault finding, breakdowns, planned maintenance and equipment overhaul, with plenty of opportunity to develop your technical knowledge.

We're looking for somebody who takes pride in their work, can think on their feet and wants to become an important part of a growing specialist engineering business.

There will be occasional overtime depending on customer and operational requirements.

Interested?

Apply directly or contact me for a confidential conversation.

If you're an experienced Mechanical Engineer, Electrical Engineer, Pump Engineer, Field Service Engineer or Plant Engineer and think your skills could transfer into specialist pumping and dewatering, I'd be keen to hear from you.
