About The Role
Based near Crawley, this full-time Polishing Operative role runs Monday to Friday, 07:30–16:30, paying £13.40 hourly. Duties centre on refining and buffing manufactured items to a high standard, alongside inspecting output and adhering to set procedures. Prior experience in polishing, finishing or car spraying proves useful, though not required, as training is offered. Candidates must demonstrate reliability, diligence and strong focus on detail.

This temporary position carries potential for permanent placement, suited to someone seeking steady weekday hours in a hands-on finishing job.
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.
