Do you take pride in producing a high-quality finish and enjoy seeing a job transformed from preparation through to the final coat? We're looking for a Paint Sprayer and Prepper to join our growing Paint team in Blackpool.

Working as part of a skilled and supportive team, you'll play a key role in preparing, painting and finishing vehicle components to the highest standards, ensuring every product leaves the paint shop looking its best and ready for service. The role includes all aspects of surface preparation, shot blasting and paint application, with a strong focus on quality, safety and attention to detail.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Preparing vehicle components and surfaces for painting, including sanding, filling, masking and cleaning
  • Carrying out shot blasting and surface preparation activities
  • Repairing dents and imperfections prior to paint application
  • Applying primers, base coats and top coats using automotive spray-painting equipment
  • Mixing paint accurately to meet colour specifications
  • Inspecting completed work and rectifying any paint defects where required
  • Maintaining paint shop equipment and ensuring work is completed safely and efficiently
  • Working to production schedules while maintaining high quality standards
  • Following work instructions and supporting continuous improvement across the paint department
  • Contributing to a safe, organised and collaborative working environment

Be part of something new

We're investing in the future of our Blackpool operation and are looking for people who want to be part of that journey.

We'll be relocating manufacture of our BETA bin lift from Warwick to Blackpool at the end of 2026, creating an exciting opportunity to join the team during this transition. To help you build the skills and knowledge needed for success, during your first three months, training will take place between our Warwick and Blackpool manufacturing locations, working alongside our experienced production team in Warwick before returning to Blackpool as the project progresses.

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.
