Graduate Engineer

Graduate Engineer

Location: Torquay

Salary: £30,000 + Benefits

Are you a recent Engineering graduate looking to kick-start your career within a thriving manufacturing environment?

We're working with an established and innovative manufacturer seeking to add a Graduate Manufacturing Engineer to its growing engineering team. This role provides an excellent opportunity to gain hands-on experience, collaborate with experienced engineers, and develop your technical and professional skills in a supportive environment.

The Role

As a Graduate Manufacturing Engineer, you'll contribute to a variety of projects focused on improving manufacturing processes, increasing efficiency, and supporting new product introductions. This role offers exposure to production, quality, process improvements, and continuous improvement initiatives.

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.
