Electrical Assembler
Location: Newmarket, Suffolk
Salary: £30,000 – £35,000 DOE
We’re recruiting for an Electrical Assembler to join a growing engineering manufacturer in Newmarket following the award of several major projects.
The business specialises in the design and manufacture of bespoke electrical systems, including distribution boards, switchboards, control panels, enclosed starters, inverter panels, and power distribution units.
Their equipment is supplied across a diverse range of industries including renewable energy, marine, agriculture, food processing, construction, compressors, and electronics.
The Role
This is a hands-on electrical assembly position where you’ll be involved in the build and wiring of complete electrical systems from drawings and schematics.
Rather than repetitive production assembly, you’ll work across a variety of bespoke projects, assembling electrical equipment to individual customer specifications.
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.
