The Role

At VEKA, our people are at the heart of everything we do, and we're proud to provide opportunities for individuals to develop, contribute, and succeed.

We are seeking a Lamination Operator to join our team. Working within our Lamination department, you'll be responsible for operating and setting production lines, preparing materials, monitoring quality standards, and supporting the efficient manufacture of our products. As part of a collaborative team, you'll also contribute to continuous improvement initiatives, uphold Lean manufacturing principles, and help ensure departmental targets are achieved.

What You'll Do

  • Operate and set lamination machinery to meet product specifications, production targets, and quality standards.
  • Monitor material feeds, product quality, and line performance, taking appropriate action to maintain output and compliance.
  • Prepare materials, trim, and package finished products while ensuring accurate data recording on company systems.
  • Work collaboratively within the team to maintain safe operations, effective communication, and efficient workflow.
  • Contribute to continuous improvement activities, supporting Lean manufacturing principles and departmental KPIs.
  • Maintain housekeeping standards, handling materials safely.

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.
