Closing Date: May 11th 2026
Role Description
Dawkes Music is looking for an experienced Woodwind Repair Technician to join the UK’s largest Repair Team.
The Repair Team is proudly the beating heart of our business. Since our beginnings in 1966 Dawkes Music have been highly respected for Repair expertise. We have a very busy, vibrant, and thriving department which is growing to meet the demands of increasing customer repairs and stock preparation.
A new addition to our team must be able to complete high quality work on a range of Woodwind instruments within a schedule and work pro-actively with others to achieve our collective responsibilities.

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.
