Versatile Maintenance Engineer Wanted

We are looking for a versatile Maintenance Engineer to join the team at this specialist manufacturing site midway between Huntingdon and Peterborough.

In this role, you'll be the primary contact for both electrical and mechanical maintenance, ensuring the plant and equipment stay in top shape to keep production moving.

If you enjoy a mix of electrical and mechanical work, from PLC fault finding to fixing conveyors and gearboxes, this is the perfect role for you.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Getting stuck into both electrical and mechanical breakdowns to keep downtime to a minimum.
  • Diagnosing and fixing faults in PLC systems, control panels, motors, and sensors.
  • Handling mechanical repairs on conveyors, hydraulics, pneumatics, and drive systems.
  • Carrying out regular service tasks (PPM) to ensure everything runs safely and reliably.
  • Helping to install and set up new machinery and automation upgrades.
  • Suggesting ways to improve machinery and stop the same faults from happening twice.

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.
