ENGINEERING PLACEMENT STUDENT

We are now recruiting for the 2025/2026 opportunity in our yearly placement scheme. This 12 month opportunity, within the Engineering team, will start in September 2025. The successful applicant shall currently be studying their 2nd year Bachelors/3rd year integrated Masters within an accredited Agricultural and/or Engineering related course.

This opportunity will allow the successful applicant to experience all technical departments of our company; a split of time between the Production, Product Support and Engineering departments shall be discussed during interview and agreed upon a successful offer of employment. This split of time will allow a personal experience of the complete product lifecycle through the initial design phase through to build and support in field and then back to product improvement within the design. Successful applicants shall experience the following during their placement year:

  • Design / Engineering – 3D CAD Design using SolidEdge, producing engineering drafts, schematics, Engineering Change Requests/Notices and new design projects
  • Technical Development – experience with Electronic/Electrical, Hydraulic and Pneumatic systems
  • Assembly – hands on understanding of how the machines are built
  • Product Support – providing support to end user and customers across the globe. This could be office based support or out of site with the customer

Through offering you an opportunity to experience working in all technical departments of the company, your skills can be made known to us and possibly highlight a department you would like to remain in. To date this has been a very successful scheme for both the student and us, with many students returning to the company after graduation.

Ideally we would prefer applicants to complete a minimum of a 12 month placement with us as this provides suitable time in each department. This is available for discussion and some students continue with us for longer than 12 months depending on term dates.

Please send your Curriculum Vitae and covering letter to: hr@househamsprayers.com

Closing Date: 25 February 2025
