Job Title: Production Operative (Temporary)

Hours: Monday to Friday, typically 9:00am till 17:00pm. But candidates must be flexible as hours may vary depending on project requirements.

Overview

Our Client is seeking practical, hands-on Production Operatives to join their collaborative production team. The role involves assembling, packaging, and quality checking products across a variety of workstations. The ideal candidate will be creative, adaptable, and comfortable working on multiple projects simultaneously. This position offers the opportunity to work with new and emerging products, where no two days are the same. Warehouse duties may also be required to support the wider operation when necessary.

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.
