A unique opportunity has arisen for a Graduate/Junior Test Engineer to join a specialist engineering organisation with a global customer base. This is a newly created role, working alongside an experienced Test Engineer and offering excellent training and development within a highly specialised technical environment.

• Assist with the testing and validation of specialist engineering facilities.
• Carry out technical measurements and performance assessments.
• Analyse test data and investigate technical issues.
• Prepare detailed reports for customers.
• Support commissioning activities both in the UK and internationally.
• Work directly with clients, providing a professional and solutions-focused approach.

Candidate Requirements

• Degree (or due to graduate) in Electrical/Electronic Engineering, Physics, Applied Physics or a related discipline.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
• Excellent communication and report-writing abilities.
• Comfortable working directly with customers.
• Willingness to travel internationally.
• A practical, hands-on approach to engineering.

Desirable

• Knowledge of RF, electronics or electromagnetic principles.
• Experience using test and measurement equipment.
• Understanding of spectrum analysers and antennas.
• Laboratory, research or engineering project experience.

This is an excellent opportunity for a graduate, recent graduate or early-career engineer looking to build expertise in a niche engineering sector with international exposure and long-term career prospects.
