The Role - Mechanical Technician

This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced Mechanical biased Technician to join a fascinating aviation MRO business.

You will be supporting the precision assembly, repair, overhaul, and testing of integrated aircraft mechanical assemblies and systems.

This is a hands-on role that requires an engineer’s problem solving due to the nature of some of the systems and assemblies, as every day will present new technical challenges.

This role would suit someone who enjoys problem solving on mechanically biased systems or mechanical restoration projects (Classic cars, Aircraft, Classic bikes) such as mechanics or aircraft technicians.

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.
