I am recruiting for my client, an established engineering business based in Basingstoke, Hampshire. They are looking to recruit an Electrical Test Technician to join their Customer Service team, predominantly based at their Basingstoke facility with UK and overseas travel required to support customers when needed.

This is an excellent opportunity for an electrical/electronic biased engineer who enjoys hands-on technical work, fault finding and problem solving. You will be involved in testing, validating, commissioning and troubleshooting specialist electrical systems and equipment, working closely with engineering and production teams as well as supporting commissioning activities at customer sites.

Electrical Test Technician Responsibilities:

  • Carry out testing on electrical components, control panels and associated systems.
  • Complete functional, performance and safety testing on electrical equipment.
  • Diagnose, investigate and rectify electrical and electronic faults identified during testing.
  • Read and interpret electrical drawings, schematics and wiring diagrams.
  • Analyse test results and identify the root cause of faults or performance issues.
  • Support commissioning and troubleshooting activities at customer sites when required.
  • Produce accurate test reports and maintain relevant technical documentation.
  • Travel within the UK and overseas to support customer requirements, installations and commissioning activities when required.

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.
