Have you got experience working with autonomous, PLC based warehousing equipment? Do you have a "can do" attitude, with no job being too small or large? Would you like to join one of the UK's leading retailers?

We are currently searching for a Maintenance and Automation Engineer to join B&M in our Distribution Centre in Ellesmere Port.

Shift Pattern

Monday - Friday, 39 hours per week

About the Role

This is a hands-on role, where you will be supporting our Maintenance Manager with the general maintenance of our distribution centre and the equipment/facilities within, with a focus on the increasing automation technology on site. This site is the latest in the B&M portfolio and acts as an "imports centre", feeding the rest of the network as opposed to Stores.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Responding swiftly to any breakdowns and issues raised by colleagues
  • Carrying out routine/planned maintenance tasks
  • Maintaining accurate records on our facilities management system
  • Collaborating and working alongside third party contractors
  • Assisting with equipment installations, project work and general PPM as required

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.
