This role is suited to someone with strong practical electrical skills who enjoys building, wiring, and commissioning real equipment. You will work from electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, and panel layouts to deliver safe, reliable electrical systems.

The role involves close collaboration with mechanical technicians and engineers to complete machine builds, control panels, and on-site installations.

  • Wire industrial machinery, including motors, sensors, actuators, and control devices
  • Build and wire control panels for automated systems
  • Install and terminate cabling, glands, trunking, and containment
  • Wire, test, and calibrate sensors and actuators
  • Support electrical installation and commissioning activities
  • Work alongside mechanical technicians during machine assembly and installation
  • Build from electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, and as-built drawings
  • Maintain high standards of electrical safety, workmanship, and documentation

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.
