Get Off Shifts. Get Your Evenings Back. Enjoy a Better Work-Life Balance.
The Collective Network are supporting a well-established food manufacturing group with over a century of industry presence and a strong reputation for quality, development, and continuous improvement.
This opportunity is ideal for engineers who are ready to step away from shift patterns and move into a stable days-based engineering role with long-term career prospects and a genuinely supportive culture.
Why This Role Stands Out
- Straight days - no nights, no rotating shifts
- A culture focused on developing people & investing in site improvements
- Overtime paid at x1.5
- Opportunity to work in a small, collaborative team where you can make an impact
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.
