Are you a Service Engineer with experience working on balers, compactors, shredders or similar, looking to cover an M25 patch that offers excellent benefits, a highly competitive salary package, door to door pay and plenty of overtime opportunities to increase your earnings?
In this field-based role you will be performing installations, servicing and repairs on waste and recycling equipment, primarily within a 3-hour radius of your home but with some UK wide travel when needed. You will be trained to a high standard in-house then put on extra courses if needed, allowing you to become a multi-skilled master in the industry.
Founded over 30 years ago, this manufacturer supplies their niche equipment across the UK to the likes of Lidl, Currys and Muller. Boasting excellent retention rates with their trusted client base, they are aiming to double their turnover within the next 5 years.
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.
