Lead Electrical Engineer
Bristol - Hybrid
£55,000 – £63,000 + bonus and benefits
We’re working with a leading advanced engineering and manufacturing business to recruit a Lead Electrical Engineer to join their growing team.
This is a hands-on leadership role where you’ll take ownership of electrical design across complex, high-spec equipment, while leading and developing a team of engineers. You’ll play a key role in driving technical standards, ensuring compliance, and delivering innovative, high-quality solutions within a regulated environment.
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.
