Clean Energy Rotation Programme (Graduate)
Location: Belfast (hybrid)
Salary: £35,000 - £45,000, depending on experience
Type: Full-time | Two-year rotational programme
About us
We develop, build, own, and operate renewable energy projects across the island of Ireland, with a portfolio covering onshore wind, solar, and battery energy storage (BESS). The island's electricity system operates as a single all-island market, and our projects and people work across it. From our Belfast office, this programme develops the graduates we expect to help lead the island's energy transition.
The programme
This is a two-year, full-time rotational position for graduates who want to understand the whole clean energy business before choosing a specialty. You will complete three eight-month rotations across our core functions, shaped around your strengths and interests:
- Development: siting, planning, grid connection, and the commercial groundwork that takes a project from map to shovel-ready
- Engineering & Construction: technical design, contractor coordination, and delivering projects in the field
- Finance & Asset Management: investment analysis, project finance, and the commercial performance of our operating fleet
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.
You will finish the programme with a permanent placement on the team where you have found the strongest fit, along with a network and a company-wide understanding that most professionals take years to build.
What you will do
- Join each team as a full contributor, with real deliverables and ownership from your first week
- Support live projects through analysis, modelling, applications, technical reviews, and site visits across the island
- Present your work to senior leadership at the end of each rotation
- Learn directly from experienced developers, engineers, and financiers, with a dedicated mentor throughout
- Build the cross-functional fluency that accelerates careers in this industry
What we are looking for
- A degree (2.1 or above) in engineering, environmental science, economics, finance, business, or a related field
- A genuine interest in clean energy and the transition to a decarbonised economy
- Strong analytical skills and comfort with data, spreadsheets, and learning new tools
- Clear communication and the confidence to work across every part of a business
- Adaptability: three rotations mean three new teams, new problems, and steep learning curves
- The right to work in the UK
