Full time, permanent - quick progression for the right persons.
A long-established Staffordshire workshop reconditioning diesel engines for trucks, buses, coaches, plant and industrial equipment. The business has been in diesel engineering for decades, with a small team and its own workshop. The work is stripping, rebuilding and testing engines, plus supplying parts. Training is given, and there is room for the right person to take on more.
About the Role
This is a hands-on role. You will strip, assess, rebuild and test diesel engines. Full training is provided from the start, on the engines, the methods and the way the workshop runs. You do not need to know this exact work on day one. What matters is a good grounding in diesel engines and the willingness to build on it.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Large commercial engines are a plus, whether that is HGV, bus, coach, plant or industrial. Experience stripping or rebuilding engines is more useful here than general servicing.
There is a real chance to progress. The workshop is small, the work is skilled, and the right person will be given more responsibility over time. Someone who settles in and wants to grow can do well here.
What you need
- Solid knowledge of diesel engines.
- Experience stripping or rebuilding engines, not just servicing them.
- Large commercial engines are a plus: HGV, bus, coach, plant or industrial.
- Happy to work hands-on in a small workshop.
- Driving licence.
