Service Engineer - Forklift & Warehouse Equipment
Location: North West
Role type: Field-based
A well-established material handling company supplying and supporting forklift trucks and warehouse equipment to a wide range of customers is looking to recruit a Field Service Engineer to join its team.
The Role
As a Service Engineer, you will be responsible for carrying out planned servicing and maintenance on a range of forklift trucks and warehouse equipment across customer sites throughout the North West.
This is a servicing-focused role, with no breakdown call-outs or repair work required initially.

You will be responsible for:
- Servicing and carrying out routine maintenance on a range of forklift trucks and warehouse equipment
- Working on a variety of equipment including electric, LPG and diesel counterbalance, pallet and reach trucks
- Completing planned maintenance and inspections to a high standard
- Carrying out basic checks and identifying any issues requiring further attention
- Representing the company professionally at customer sites
- Managing your workload independently while maintaining high standards of workmanship and safety
- Working closely with experienced engineers and the wider service team to develop your technical knowledge
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.
