We're growing our team at SWORD Engineering!

As SWORD Engineering continues to grow, we're looking for an experienced Engineering Project Manager to join our team in Wem, Shropshire.

We design and manufacture bespoke recycling and material-handling equipment for customers throughout the UK, specialising in conveyor solutions, trommels, hoppers, access platforms and complete bespoke machinery installations.

With a strong project portfolio, we're investing further in our project delivery capability to support our customers and the continued development of the business.

We're looking for someone with a strong engineering background to work alongside our Directors, Design Team and experienced engineering team, playing an important role in the successful delivery of projects from design and manufacture through to installation and completion.

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.
