Do you enjoy leading engineering teams, delivering innovative products from concept to production and developing high-performing engineers?

As the Engineering Manager, you'll lead a multidisciplinary engineering team responsible for delivering high-quality New Product Introduction (NPI) and sustaining engineering projects.

Working closely with the Chief Engineer, Commercial teams and customers, you'll ensure engineering projects are delivered on time, to specification and ready for manufacture.

This is a leadership role where you'll balance technical delivery, people development and continuous improvement while creating a high-performance engineering culture.

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.
