Protection and Control Project Engineer for a major offshore wind in Scotland
Provide protection and control engineering support across multiple projects, by assessing and defining the technical scope requirements during development phases, before evaluating third-party detailed designs as the project moves into delivery, predominantly panel and scheme designs.
Configure protection and control equipment according to the application and scheme requirements, including the calculation and preparation of protection settings. Ideally, candidates will be experienced in both scheme design and setting preparation; however, we also welcome applications from individuals with expertise in either area.
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.
