Mechanical Project Engineer

Employment Type: Full–time, Permanent

The Company

We are a Midlands–based, market–leading Construction M&E Contractor with a strong reputation for technical excellence, collaborative delivery, and a people–first culture. Our projects span the Midlands and South, primarily within the Education and Ministry of Justice sectors.

We are proud of our supportive, team–oriented environment and our commitment to developing and looking after our people. As we continue to grow, we are seeking a talented Mechanical Project Engineer to join our team.

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.
