About The Role
We are looking for Fixed Wire Test Engineers to join our team, working from a home base in North Yorkshire, Sheffield, Bristol, or Northampton and the surrounding areas.
The role involves the inspection and testing of commercial fixed wire installations and distribution boards. You will work solely on commercial sites, including facilities management, retail, commercial, education, councils, and local authorities. We do not carry out domestic housing work.
You will use our bespoke testing software, built with engineer input over a number of years and designed entirely around speed and efficiency of testing. If you have ideas to improve it further, we want to hear them, and feedback is regularly built into future updates.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
A method statement is agreed with the client before you arrive on site, so expectations are clear from the outset. We focus on larger sites and bigger jobs wherever possible, giving engineers the opportunity to stay on site longer and earn more. Work is organized on a regional basis, so while we try to reduce travel time where we can, we are not able to guarantee work will always be local.
You are contracted to 40 hours per week, with overtime opportunities available for those looking to earn more. There may be occasions when out-of-hours or weekend work is required depending on client access and site type.
Key Responsibilities
- Carrying out electrical periodic inspection and testing of fixed wire installations
- Completing minor remedial works where required
- Producing accurate NICEIC reports to be quality checked by our Technical Manager
- Working closely with the Technical Manager and Operations team
- Using our bespoke testing software, designed for speed and efficiency
- Working across facilities management, retail, commercial, education, and local authority sites
- Helping identify ways to improve testing software and processes
Skills, Knowledge, And Expertise
- A recognised electrical qualification, C&G 2391 or equivalent, preferably as a time-served electrician or tester
- AM2 or NVQ Level 3 qualified
- 18th Edition qualification
- Proven experience testing through and through, on commercial sites rather than domestic housing
- A proven ability to work safely in accordance with company policies and safety legislation
- Dedication to keep up to date with current legislation and undertake training as required
