Senior Electrical Design Engineer £55-70k + benefits

Stoke-on-Trent area, Staffordshire - 5 days onsite

Background

This role is open to a senior engineer looking to progress or a principal engineer, hence the broad salary range. The upper end would be principal.

This role involves technically leading a small team of electrical engineers working on the design and development of electrical distribution systems for complex agricultural machines/vehicles. In this role you will become the technical authority for a range of products, owning electrical schematic and harness design and delivery for the machines. You will mentor, lead and develop the team and contribute to next generation products, implementing new ideas and technologies.

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.
