The Opportunity

Our client is looking to recruit two experienced Technicians to join its engineering team at the West Drayton depot. We are seeking one Mechanical Technician and one Electrical Technician to help maintain a modern fleet of passenger vehicles to the highest standards of safety, reliability, and performance.

We are keen to speak with experienced PSV Technicians, but would also welcome applications from HGV Technicians who are looking to transition into the PSV sector. If you have strong mechanical or electrical experience on commercial vehicles and are looking for a new challenge, we'd be pleased to hear from you.

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.
