Take your career to the next level with Sysco GB. We’re home to some of the UK’s leading food businesses, including Brakes and Fresh Direct. Designed with colleagues in mind, the site has all the right ingredients to be an amazing place to work. Join us as a Facilities Engineer and help us set the standards for operational excellence.

A Satisfying Role

An integral part of our facilities team, you’ll keep our services and equipment up and running all across the site.

You’ll also move us forward by supporting improvement projects and suggesting ways to improve our performance, equipment reliability and energy use.

A qualified engineer with an NVQ Level 3 or equivalent in a relevant discipline and FMCG or logistics experience, you have all the tools to excel at Sysco:

  • A background in engineering or maintenance
  • Experience in operating and maintaining fire prevention, water, air supply, gas supply, refrigeration and electricity systems
  • Experience of working with loading bay equipment and dock door systems
  • Project management experience, with an understanding of CDM, 5S and TPM
  • Knowledge of legislative and environmental standards
  • Strong analytical, problem-solving and teamwork skills
  • Good IT literacy, including experience with CMMS and Excel.

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.
