Job Opportunity for an Electrical Engineer
This is an excellent opportunity for an Electrical Engineer with experience in high-voltage (HV) installation, maintenance, or testing to transition into a career as an HV Design Engineer / Control and Protection Design Engineer.
Joining a well-respected organisation that delivers projects for a range of Distribution Network Operators (DNOs), you'll receive comprehensive training to build on your existing HV knowledge and develop specialist design expertise. Working on projects from 11kV to 132kV, you'll gain valuable experience in HV control and protection design while contributing to critical power infrastructure.
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.
