Working within a specialist engineering environment, you will assemble, configure and test electrical and computer-based products used in demanding defence, transport, industrial and security applications. This is a hands-on role requiring a high level of accuracy, technical aptitude and attention to detail, ensuring products are manufactured and tested to the highest quality standards.

  • Identify, investigate and report technical issues where required.

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.
