Hydraulic Service Engineer
Hydraulic Service Engineer Opportunity
I have a fantastic opportunity for an experienced Hydraulic Service Engineer to join a well-established and growing engineering organisation based in Portland, Dorset. This role is ideal for someone with a strong hydraulic and mechanical background who is looking for a varied position combining workshop-based work with customer site visits, supporting maintenance, repair, and installation of hydraulic systems.
The role will involve working both in the workshop and on customer sites, with occasional overnight stays away from home required to support business needs.
In return, you will receive a competitive salary, ongoing training and development, and the opportunity to progress within a growing engineering business.
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.
