About the Role

We are currently recruiting 4 Night Shift Press Brake Machinists to join a busy, modern manufacturing environment operating 24/7. Following a recent £2 million investment in three brand-new machines, this is an exciting opportunity to be part of a growing and forward-thinking production team.

  • Supporting operation of lasers and punch press machinery where required
  • Reading and interpreting engineering drawings accurately

  • Maintaining high standards of quality and productivity
  • Supporting a flexible, multi-skilled production environment
  • Adhering to health & safety procedures at all times

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.
