Operations Planner

As an Operations Planner, you'll play a key role in coordinating our nationwide engineering workforce, ensuring the right people, equipment, and resources are in the right place at the right time. You'll manage engineer schedules, logistics, compliance, and operational planning to support the successful delivery of fuel infrastructure and environmental projects across the UK.

This is an ideal opportunity for someone with experience in planning, scheduling, or coordinating field-based engineers who enjoys working in a fast-paced, reactive environment. Whilst industry experience is beneficial, it's not essential – full training will be provided.

Key Responsibilities

  • Schedule and allocate field-based engineers across UK sites
  • Manage engineer availability, workload planning, and travel logistics
  • Coordinate materials and resources alongside live site activity
  • Monitor project timelines and proactively resolve scheduling conflicts
  • Maintain accurate operational records and databases
  • Track compliance requirements, including PPE certification and expiry dates
  • Liaise with engineers, sales, operations teams, suppliers, and internal departments

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.
