About Us
At Helio Display Materials, we're crafting the fundamental materials that will shape the future of displays. Using the power of perovskites, these enabling materials facilitate the creation of displays that are not only brighter and more vibrant but also operate with remarkably low power consumption. Our team is dedicated to pioneering the future of colour. As we accelerate, we are looking for talented individuals to join us on the next phase of our journey.
About the Role
You will be joining a skilled and experienced team supporting the small-scale production of materials for our perovskite nanocrystal technology. This is an excellent opportunity for either a laboratory technician looking to develop their career or a recent chemistry graduate seeking hands-on industrial experience within a fast-paced and innovative start-up environment.
Working alongside experienced chemists, you will gain practical experience in materials synthesis, quality control, and pilot-line production while contributing to the development and scale-up of our technology.
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.
