At the heart of these challenges, Assystem supports its clients in delivering their most strategic projects. To achieve this, our 8,000 Switchers leverage their expertise in engineering, project management, and digital solutions.

Job Description
Your Responsibilities

Your main responsibilities include:
- Support process design, analysis, optimisation and engineering assessments.
- Prepare process calculations, datasheets, flow diagrams and technical reports.
- Contribute to requirements definition, design reviews and technical assurance.
- Work with mechanical, EC&I, safety and project teams to manage interfaces.
- Help identify process risks, constraints and opportunities for improvement.
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.
