About the Role
We are looking for a Mech bias maintenance engineer to join our team of 6 engineers at our growing site in Smethwick. We have an established customer base, exporting goods all around the world. This is a really good opportunity to join a growing business with brilliant stability.
Our site has continually expanded year after year, and we have now incorporated another factory into our industry. With a turnover of £80 million last year, we are looking for another maintenance engineer to help support our growth.
The work done will be 80/20 mech based, if you have some electrical knowledge i.e. isolate safely, change a sensor and have some form of electrical qualification that would be great, but not a deal breaker.
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.
