📄 Inside IR35

We're currently recruiting for an experienced Configuration Engineer to join a major engineering project based in Bridgwater, Somerset. This is an excellent opportunity to play a key role in supporting configuration management activities on one of the UK's most significant infrastructure programmes.

Working within a highly collaborative engineering environment, you'll help ensure that design configuration is effectively controlled throughout the project lifecycle, supporting technical teams and stakeholders to maintain compliance, quality and configuration integrity.

The Role

As a Configuration Engineer, you will:

  • Support the delivery of configuration management processes across a large engineering programme.
  • Act as a key technical point of contact for engineering teams on configuration management matters.
  • Coordinate stakeholders to progress design changes, technical interfaces, open points and configuration activities.
  • Monitor and steer end-to-end configuration management processes.
  • Support design handovers while maintaining robust configuration control.
  • Assist in developing and maintaining data-driven approaches to managing engineering configuration.
  • Analyse technical documentation and identify opportunities to improve processes and systems.
  • Build strong working relationships across multidisciplinary engineering teams.

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.
