Electrical Manufacturing Engineer (NPI & Improvement)

£40,000 - £43,000 + Progression + Training + 34 Days Holiday + Healthcare + 5% Pension

Walsall, Birmingham

Are you an Electrical Engineer or Manufacturing Engineer looking for ownership over the full product journey, an abundance of technical variety and a role beyond pure design that allow you to have more responsibility and influence?

Do you want to join a successful business that can offer a vast variety of engaging work, internal training courses and on-going progression into senior and managerial positions?

In this role you will work within the New Product Introduction team. You will produce 2D electrical schematics and wiring drawings from customer specifications, while creating clear visual assembly instructions and manufacturing documentation to support both skilled Electrical Wirers and production assembly staff. You'll also work to continuously improve the manufacturing process, with the autonomy to make necessary changes and have your ideas heard and implemented.

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.
