Job Details
Mechanical Design Engineer
UK–based applications Only No sponsorship available
Overview
We're recruiting on behalf of a client for a Mechanical Design Engineer to join their Chassis' Team. This is an exciting opportunity to develop innovative concepts and design the next generation of market–leading products, supporting the team from concept through to production.
We're looking for someone with a background in design for manufacture/ heavy fabrications design.
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.
