This is an exciting opportunity for an experienced electrical engineer looking to take the next step in their career within a collaborative building services consultancy. You'll work on a diverse range of projects, taking greater responsibility for electrical design while working closely with senior engineers, clients, architects, and other members of the design team.
You'll have the opportunity to build on your existing technical experience, take ownership of elements of projects, and develop the skills required to progress towards a senior engineering role.
What You'll Do
- Develop electrical building services designs from concept through to detailed design and construction.
- Undertake electrical calculations, including load assessments, cable sizing, voltage drop, and fault current calculations.
- Develop lighting and small power designs, emergency lighting, and electrical distribution systems.
- Produce electrical drawings, schematics, specifications, and technical reports.
- Use relevant design software to develop and coordinate electrical systems.
- Coordinate electrical designs with mechanical, architectural, and structural disciplines.
- Attend project and design meetings and contribute to technical discussions.
- Liaise with clients, contractors, architects, and other consultants.
- Undertake site surveys and inspections where required.
- Review technical information, drawings, and contractor submissions.
- Support the delivery of projects to programme, budget, and required technical standards.
- Provide guidance and support to junior engineers and graduates where appropriate.
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.
