Maintenance Engineer (Mechanical Bias)

£35,000 - £40,000 + Training + Progression + Company Benefits + Overtime

Location: Doncaster

Do you have a Mechanical/Electrical engineering background? Are you looking to join an expanding business working on the PM shift, in a role that will provide training to further develop your skills, the opportunity to progress into a shift leader, and optional overtime to boost your earnings?

On offer is an excellent opportunity to join a family-owned manufacturing business that repairs, sorts, and supplies pallets across the UK for well-known brands across the retail industry. The company is expanding due to continued growth and is looking for a Maintenance Technician to support day-to-day operations across production machinery, Forklifts, and HGVs.

In this role, you will carry out planned preventative maintenance, respond to breakdowns, diagnose faults, and complete repairs across mechanical and basic electrical systems. You will work closely with production and transport teams to minimise downtime, complete service records, and ensure equipment is running safely and efficiently.

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.
