Are you a Project Engineer or Electrical Design Engineer with experience in BMS or building controls, looking to join a well-established business offering specialist training, long-term progression and the opportunity to take ownership of technical projects? Do you want to join a leading building controls company where you will work on varied BMS and HVAC projects, develop your engineering expertise and support projects from initial design through to handover?

You will also coordinate equipment deliveries, produce handover documentation and attend project meetings, deputising for the Project Manager when 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.
