The Role
We are looking for a Trainee Aftercare Technician to join our team and develop the practical skills and knowledge required to support aftercare, maintenance, and small works projects across our completed installations.
This role would suit someone who enjoys practical, hands-on work and wants to build a career within bespoke joinery, furniture installation, and aftercare services. Previous experience within joinery, cabinet making, furniture installation, construction, or maintenance would be beneficial, but the right attitude, willingness to learn, and pride in producing high-quality work are equally important.
Working alongside experienced colleagues, you will learn how to carry out repairs, adjustments, snagging, and remedial works while supporting planned maintenance and small installation projects.
The role will involve regular travel to client properties, primarily in London, with the potential to work across the UK and occasionally internationally.
Our projects include bespoke kitchens, dressing rooms, libraries, and architectural joinery for prestigious residential properties, where professionalism, attention to detail, and craftsmanship are essential.
If you are looking to develop practical skills, work on exceptional projects, and build a long-term career within a specialist team, we would welcome hearing from you.
Key Responsibilities
- Supporting aftercare and maintenance work on completed projects
- Assisting with repairs, adjustments, and replacement of hardware and ironmongery
- Supporting snagging, remedial works, and modifications to existing installations
- Assisting with the installation of small works projects on site
- Travelling to client sites, primarily in London, to support planned works and surveys
- Taking site photographs, notes, measurements, and other project information
- Maintaining accurate records using digital reporting and project management systems
- Liaising professionally with clients, installers, subcontractors, and internal teams
- Assisting workshop teams with preparation, manufacturing, and modification work where required
- Following health and safety procedures and maintaining high standards of workmanship at all times
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.
