Join Mizkan Euro, The Home of Sarson's Vinegar and Branston Pickle
At Mizkan, we're proud of our heritage, our iconic brands, and our commitment to continuous improvement.
We're looking for an electrically biased Multi-Skilled Engineer to join our Brewery Engineering team in Middleton. This is an opportunity to work in a fast-paced manufacturing environment where you'll play a vital role in maintaining production performance, improving equipment reliability, and helping shape future engineering improvements.
If you're someone who enjoys fault finding, solving technical challenges, and making a genuine impact, we'd love to hear from you.
The Opportunity
Reporting to the Brewery Engineering Lead, you'll be responsible for keeping our production assets operating safely, efficiently, and reliably.
No two days are the same. You'll work closely with production and engineering colleagues to minimize downtime, improve equipment performance, and identify opportunities for continuous improvement.
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.
