The Opportunity

This is an opportunity to join a leading engineering organisation operating within a highly regulated, defence focused, safety-critical environment.

As a Verification & Validation Engineer, you will play a key role in ensuring the performance, safety and compliance of complex software and hardware systems. You will support the planning, execution and reporting of V&V activities across the full systems engineering lifecycle, contributing to high-profile defence and mission-critical programmes.

You will work within a multidisciplinary team environment, delivering complex systems across multiple domains, with a strong focus on collaboration, quality and technical excellence.

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.
