  • Collaborating closely with operators and engineers

  • Validating design specifications and ensuring their shop-floor application for new products, tools, or equipment.
  • Driving accountability through daily/weekly operating rhythms to meet production requirements.
  • Evaluating quality control processes and proposing improvements.
  • Leading design reviews and New Product Introduction (NPI) integration into existing manufacturing processes.
  • Analysing and reporting on key metrics:
    • Production processes
    • Methods and schedules
    • Downtime
    • Cycle times
    • Machine availability
    • Waste management
  • Acting as a key stakeholder in new equipment selection, ensuring alignment with process best practices and CAPEX approvals.

  • Coordinating maintenance and repair services to keep production equipment operational.
  • Identifying and evaluating improvement opportunities.

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.
