We are working with a highly established, award-winning control system integrator to recruit a Control System Engineer with a strong electrical design bias.

Known for delivering turnkey control, automation, and instrumentation solutions for some of Europe's most complex national infrastructure and bespoke engineering projects, this company has been recognized with multiple prestigious innovation and civil engineering awards.

About the Role

This is a hybrid role (3 days in the office, 2 days at home) with some travel for commissioning (less than 20% of the year). You will be leading a team to deliver full-lifecycle projects within highly diverse and exciting environments.

Culture & Progression

This is a business where people are highly engaged, boasting exceptional staff retention and an impressive average length of service. In fact, 60% of their engineers started their careers here as apprentices or graduates, and almost all of their current open roles are a result of internal mobility and promotion!

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.

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.

There is a real sense that developing people goes beyond the usual lip service. As an IET Enterprise Partner with a significant Learning & Development budget, an incredible 15% of engineers are on long-term training. This is proper, structured training that supports professional registration and goes well beyond the standard 3-day Siemens or EPLAN course you might be sent on elsewhere.

The company also has an internal academy to support your development so you can progress – there are several defined paths to move forward within engineering, applications, or service.
