Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What we are looking for
- Proven bench experience servicing mechanical watch movements
- A recognised watchmaking qualification (BHI, WOSTEP or equivalent), or equivalent proven experience
- A careful, methodical and tidy way of working, with strong attention to detail
- Reliable and happy working as part of a small team
Experience with luxury brands, chronograph calibres or vintage movements would be useful, but is not essential.

Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
Why join us?
- A well-equipped, modern workshop run by watchmakers
- Monday-to-Friday working hours
- Varied work across a wide range of brands and calibres
- A small-team environment where good work is noticed and valued
- Room to grow as the business grows
This is a full-time, on-site role at Roots Farm, Dunsop Bridge, BB7 3BG.
