Job Description

Do you have a degree in robotics, mechatronics, or a related engineering discipline? Are you looking for a high-impact graduate role where you can step up, champion brand-new technologies, and grow into a technical lead position?

Due to exciting company expansion and the introduction of cutting-edge manufacturing tech, my client is looking to recruit a Graduate Robotics Engineer to join their specialist team. You will play a pivotal role in bringing in and championing state-of-the-art specialist robotics machinery, taking full ownership of programming and setting them up.

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.
