Job Details
We are seeking a Mechanical Design Engineer for a pioneering medtech company specialising in innovative plastic moulded components and automation solutions within the healthcare and life sciences sector. Based in Warrington, this role offers a unique opportunity to be at the forefront of designing scalable, high–performance medical devices incorporating robotics and mechatronics. You will play a critical role in developing and refining complex injection moulded plastics and polymer components, transforming novel concepts into manufacturable products that meet strict regulatory standards. Working closely with a dynamic team, your responsibilities will include concept development, prototyping, materials selection, and collaborating with manufacturing partners to ensure designs are optimised for production and compliance.

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.
