- Delivering planned preventative maintenance (PPM) and reactive maintenance
- Maintaining and repairing mechanical & electrical systems and associated components
- Fault-finding across HVAC, pumps, generators, lighting and small power systems
- Responding to breakdowns and emergency maintenance situations
- Responding to BMS alarms and carrying out first-line diagnostics
- Ensuring HVAC systems maintain comfortable environmental conditions
- Completing simPRO tasks with accurate records and photographic evidence
- Maintaining logbooks and compliance documentation (electrical, mechanical, water systems)
- Supporting statutory planned maintenance and escalating issues where required
- Carrying out plant start-up, shutdown, changeover and optimisation procedures
- Undertaking regular site walk-rounds to ensure safety, cleanliness and performance
- Supporting subcontractors and reviewing works on site
- Carrying out small repair and installation tasks as required
- Ensuring all plant rooms are safe, tidy and compliant
- Communicating clearly with supervisors, account management and clients
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.
