Plant Fitter (Workshop Based)

£35,000 - £37,000 (OTE £40k) + 1.5x Overtime + Days Only + Training on Plant Equipment + Monday to Friday + Increasing Holidays

Cambridge, Cambridgeshire

Are you a Mechanical Fitter or similar looking to progress your career in a static workshop-based role where you will benefit from ongoing training, equipping you to become a fully-fledged Plant Engineer in a day's only, Monday to Friday role?

On offer is the opportunity to join a longstanding construction equipment provider with numerous depots across the UK. They have nearly 40 years' experience and a team of highly skilled, dedicated engineers and are now looking to bolster the team with new Fitters.

In this role you will be based in the Cambridge depot.

Training led by experts will be provided, leading to internal promotions within the business.

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.
