Mechanical Project Engineer Opportunity

A specialist utilities and infrastructure contractor with a huge presence across the UK and Ireland is actively seeking a Mechanical Project Engineer for a large scale wastewater upgrade project in the West Lancashire region.

This is a long term freelance role, starting in December with a minimum of 18 months on the contract. However, given their pipeline in the area they are very open to a temp to perm idea for the right candidate.

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.
