Job Details
Awerian provides research and development services that extend and enhance the ability of the UK to defend itself and protect the future prosperity of its citizens. This encompasses ideas generation to address challenging problems, rapid design and implementation of technology demonstrators, through to complete product design and transfer to manufacture.
Why Work for Us
Awerian is no ordinary research and development consultancy. We are part of TTP Group, which is an employee-owned trust. With little hierarchy, there are no corporate hoops to jump through; this, along with our flat structure, encourages mutual support, teamwork and innovation. It also creates unique opportunities to develop skills in project leadership, client management and a variety of technological work, problem solving and innovation.
Training and Development
Awerian consultants follow their own path, not a one-size definition of progression, our learning and development is centered around the individual. You follow the direction that you’re passionate about. We are also employee-owned. This means that we all have a say in our future and we have the freedom to do the right thing by our clients, employees and business.
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.
