Cardiff - South Wales patch
Are you a Service Engineer from a medical equipment background looking to join an expanding biomedical engineering company, carrying out PPM across a local South Wales patch with ongoing training and very few overnight stays?
Established over 30 years ago, this leading independent biomedical engineering specialist provides medical device supply, maintenance, training and lifecycle management services to healthcare providers across the UK and abroad. The business is committed to delivering the highest standards of service, with staff training, quality and patient safety at the forefront of everything it does.
In this role, you will carry out scheduled PPM, servicing, validation and modification of decontamination plant and equipment across a South Wales patch. You will work on electrical, electronic, mechanical, plumbing, steam and pneumatic systems, provide technical support and user training, and ensure equipment remains safe, compliant and available for patient use.
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.
