Are you a Service Engineer with experience working on mechanical, electrical, hydraulic, or plant equipment, looking for a well-paid, local patch role with full training and excellent earning potential?
On offer is an excellent opportunity to join a growing materials handling company that invests heavily in its engineers through ongoing manufacturer training and career development. You will work across a local patch, servicing and repairing a range of forklifts and materials handling equipment, with a strong focus on quality workmanship and customer satisfaction.
Due to continued expansion, the company is looking to recruit a motivated Mobile Engineer to strengthen their team across the south coast.
This role would suit an engineer from a plant, agricultural, HGV, automotive, powered access, industrial maintenance, or similar engineering background who is confident working independently in the field and wants to develop specialist skills within the forklift industry. Previous forklift experience is not essential, as full product training will be provided.
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.
