Role Purpose

We are seeking an experienced Intermediate Electrical Engineer to join our growing Building Services team and support the delivery of residential and commercial projects across the UK.

The successful candidate will have strong electrical design experience within an MEP/building services consultancy environment and will work closely with senior engineers and the wider project team. This is an excellent opportunity for an engineer looking to develop their technical expertise, client–facing skills and career progression within a supportive consultancy.

Responsibilities

  • Support senior engineers in the delivery and management of electrical building services projects.
  • Coordinate with internal teams and liaise with clients, architects, contractors and other consultants.
  • Contribute to technical design throughout the full project lifecycle.
  • Attend design team meetings, supported by an Associate Director where required.
  • Undertake site inspections and provide clear reports and feedback to the design team.
  • Carry out electrical design calculations to support engineering decisions on major building projects.
  • Develop designs in line with project briefs, specifications, budgets and programme requirements.
  • Take responsibility for allocated project tasks and deliver work to agreed deadlines.
  • Work collaboratively with other disciplines across the business.
  • Provide technical support to colleagues and contribute to the successful delivery of projects.
  • Maintain awareness of current Health & Safety and environmental requirements.

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.
