About the Role
I am recruiting for my client, a leading provider of specialist laboratory instrumentation supporting customers across a wide range of industries throughout the UK. Due to continued growth, they are now seeking a Field Service Engineer to join their established team, covering the Home Counties north of London. Please note this role involves regular travel and occasional overnight stays.
Candidates living in or close to Luton, Milton Keynes, Bedford, Cambridge, Oxford, Watford, Aylesbury, or Stevenage are of particular interest.
This is an excellent opportunity for an electrically biased engineer to join a highly respected organisation offering full training, long term career development and the chance to work with advanced technology.
Responsibilities
The successful candidate will be responsible for the service, maintenance, calibration and repair of specialist equipment at customer sites. You will also provide technical support and build strong working relationships with clients.
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.
