Electrical Manager – Major Government Project
An excellent opportunity has become available for an experienced Electrical Manager to join an award-winning Building Services contractor on a major government project based in Cambridge.
This is a long-term opportunity to play a key role in the successful delivery of electrical works within a secure, high-profile environment. Working alongside an experienced project team, you'll oversee the electrical package from installation through to commissioning and handover, ensuring works are delivered safely, on programme, and to the highest quality standards.

The Role
As Electrical Manager, you'll be responsible for:
- Managing the day-to-day delivery of the electrical package on site.
- Leading site teams, subcontractors, and specialist contractors.
- Coordinating works with the wider MEP and construction teams.
- Ensuring projects are delivered in line with programme, budget, and quality expectations.
- Monitoring Health & Safety compliance and ensuring all works are carried out safely.
- Reviewing technical drawings, specifications, and installation standards.
- Managing inspections, testing, commissioning, and project handover.
- Building strong working relationships with the client, consultants, and key stakeholders.
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.
