Job description

Got a brain built for numbers and a curiosity that doesn t quit?

If your happy place is somewhere between complex equations and hands–on problem–solving, and you re the kind of person who actually enjoyed your final–year project, this could be your kind of role.

This isn t a run–of–the–mill grad scheme.
You won t be stuck shadowing someone or pushing paperwork. You ll be designing real components for cutting–edge projects – think custom–built solutions for the kinds of clients who need things to work first time, every time.

The company?
They design and build high–performance capacitors that power everything from military propulsion systems to F1 performance tech. They ve even contributed to the Large Hadron Collider. Not bad for a Norfolk–based team, right?

What s in it for you?

  • Ownership from day one – your designs will be put to the test, literally

  • Proper R&D work – test rigs, prototyping, data, iteration, the lot

  • A small, expert team where you won t get lost in the crowd

  • Deep dive into power electronics and high–voltage design

  • Competitive salary, training, and proper holidays (24 days plus bank hols)

  • Based in Norfolk – no soul–crushing commute required

You ll fit in if:

  • You ve got a degree in Electrical Engineering or similar, with strong maths and physics foundations

  • You ve studied or worked in power electronics – and you re keen to get hands–on with it

  • You ve dabbled in research, at uni or beyond, and actually enjoyed it

  • You re methodical but not rigid, able to juggle multiple tasks and think on your feet

  • You can write solid technical English and talk shop without losing people

  • You re curious, precise, and keen to get your hands dirty with real hardware

This is for the thinkers, the testers, the builders.
If you want to start your engineering career with something meaningful, where your brain gets a proper workout – this is it.
