JOB TITLE: Pre-university Work Experience
REPORTING TO: Sales Manager
RESPONSIBLE FOR: N/A
PERMANENT/TEMPORARY: Summer Placement (July and August 2026)
JOB SUMMARY:
The Student Engineer will assist the sales department in data entry and data analysis tasks, as required. Whilst this is largely an administrative role, it requires someone who is numerate, shows attention to detail, and understands basic engineering principles.

- Bringing the sales department ‘Blower Packages’ list up to date. This involves logging the basic details of equipment that has been bid to customers.
- Entering historical ‘slip’ test results into the test register, analysing the results, and producing curves.
- Entering noise test results into the test register.
- Entering after-sales data into the sales register and producing charts to summarise trends.
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.
