Engineering Workshop Manager

Our client, an innovative engineering business based in Milton Keynes, is looking to recruit an Engineering Workshop Manager. This is an exciting opportunity to join a growing organisation developing cutting edge engineering technology for demanding industrial applications.

This is a hands on leadership role where you will lead from the front, managing a highly skilled engineering team whilst remaining actively involved in the day to day engineering operation. You'll play a key role in shaping workshop activities, improving engineering processes and supporting the continued growth of the business.

Applications are particularly encouraged from ex-military engineers with leadership experience gained within the Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers (REME), Royal Navy or Royal Air Force, although all candidates with the relevant engineering management experience will be considered.

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.
