About the Role

We have an opportunity for a Maintenance Shift Engineer to join our Maintenance team at our Leyland production site.

This role provides safe, effective and right-first-time maintenance support across the Leyland site. You will respond quickly to equipment failures, complete planned and preventative maintenance, and support the department’s move from reactive maintenance towards a proactive, reliable and data-driven asset-care model.

Key Responsibilities

  • Respond to breakdowns safely and effectively, restoring equipment quickly and supporting professional equipment hand back.
  • Carry out planned and preventative maintenance to a high standard, helping to prevent repeat failures and improve machine reliability.
  • Record accurate work-order history using the CMMS system, ensuring maintenance data is clear, complete and useful.
  • Work closely with colleagues across Production, Engineering and other departments while maintaining high standards in safety, food safety, quality and workmanship.

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.
