๐ Love the technical side of Mechanical Design but ready for more ownership?
Iโm recruiting a Senior Mechanical Design Engineer to join an established multidisciplinary building-services consultancy in Birmingham.
This is a role where you can stay hands-on with the engineering while taking more ownership of projects, clients, and junior engineers. The position is heavily focused on complex mechanical building-services design rather than management-only responsibilities.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Iโm in my final year doing Economics and I donโt know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer โ it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) donโt need a masters. Letโs look at the ones youโd 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 โ that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
