Recruitment Consultant – Engineering, Manufacturing & Technical

West Yorkshire - Commutable from Bradford and Leeds

£35,000 - £40,000 DOE plus uncapped commission and benefits

How many recruiters can honestly say their agency knows the engineering and manufacturing world better than some of the manufacturers do?

This is a rare chance to join a long-established, independent recruitment business with more than three decades of trading behind it and with engineering, manufacturing and technology genuinely at its core. Owner-operated, framework-approved and built on long-term client relationships, this is a business where sector knowledge is highly valued.

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.
