Up to £70,000 + benefits
UK based IPP working across solar and BESS sites

Since 2012, this independent power provider has been on a simple mission to contribute towards the net zero targets. They have done this through expanding their capabilities and remit in the renewable energy space. Over the last decade, they've expanded their operations to cover both development and construction of assets, allowing the team to construct over 40 solar farms and have over 7 GW of projects in development today.

A unique point to the group are the sheer size of their projects. They specifically specialize in NSIP projects, becoming a leader in this space. They also keep a large amount of the work in house, having full development capabilities, EPC and delivery as well as asset ownership.

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.

No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

They have been successful in the gate 2 announcements, and have a large portfolio to build out as a result. This work makes it an extremely exciting time to join this group as you'd have exposure to the full project lifecycle of work, through delivery and procurement stages and into energisation.

One other interesting factor to the role is the team this role falls in. You'll be working with a leader in the grid space with over 15 years of experience. This is a great team to be part of if you're ready to learn more about the delivery of projects and are looking for a supportive team to do so in.

The main focus of the role is to support the technical and grid team, and so an engineering background (Electrical) is essential for this position. Additionally, ideal candidates will have experience with grid connections and project engineering on large scale renewable energy projects.
