Offshore UAV Pilot – Heavy-Lift Cargo Operations

2 weeks on / 2 weeks off
Competitive package, based on experience

Skylift UAV is looking for an Offshore UAV Pilot to join our growing operations team.

For the past four years, Skylift has been operating in the offshore heavy-lift cargo UAV industry, delivering real-world logistics missions in demanding offshore environments.

This is not a standard drone role.

You’ll be operating heavy-lift UAVs on live offshore projects, moving critical tools, parts and equipment between vessels and offshore assets.

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.
