ATA are representing a long‑established UK‑based automation and electrical control systems specialist who are looking to add an Electrical Design Engineer to their growing engineering team.

The business operates across a broad range of industrial and manufacturing sectors, including manufacturing and production facilities, industrial automation, materials handling and logistics, utilities and infrastructure projects, process plant environments, and OEM machinery and equipment manufacturers.

The company delivers a full lifecycle service, covering electrical design, control panel manufacture, PLC / HMI / SCADA systems, installation, commissioning and ongoing support. Engineers are involved from initial concept through to final delivery, working on bespoke, real‑world industrial systems rather than repetitive or catalogue designs.

The Role

As an Electrical Design Engineer, you will be responsible for designing bespoke electrical control systems used in industrial and manufacturing environments.

Key responsibilities include:

Producing electrical schematics, wiring diagrams and control panel layouts

Designing bespoke electrical control panels and automation systems

Using AutoCAD Electrical (or similar) to create detailed designs

Selecting components and generating bills of materials

Ensuring designs comply with relevant electrical standards and regulations

Liaising with customers to define and clarify technical requirements

Providing technical support to internal teams and customers

Supporting projects through manufacture, testing and commissioning

What We’re Looking For

Industrial electrical design experience (control panels / automation)

Proficiency with an electrical CAD package

Understanding of industrial control systems and design for manufacture

Strong attention to detail and a practical, solutions‑focused mindset

What’s On Offer

£40,000 – £48,000 salary, dependent on experience

Company pension scheme

22 days holiday plus bank holidays

Monday–Friday working hours

Stable, long‑term role within a specialist engineering business

Exposure to varied, technically engaging industrial projects

Opportunities for progression as the company continues to grow

Why Apply?

You’ll join a business known for quality, reliability and long‑term client relationships, offering engineers genuine project ownership and involvement across the full engineering lifecycle. This is an ideal role for an Electrical Design Engineer looking for variety, responsibility and long‑term stability.

Where to Advertise Robotics Jobs in the UK (2026 Guide)

Advertising robotics jobs in the UK requires a different approach to most technical hiring. The candidate pool spans mechanical engineers, software developers, controls specialists, computer vision researchers and systems integrators — a multidisciplinary mix that general job boards are poorly equipped to reach. The strongest robotics candidates are often embedded in research groups, defence programmes or advanced manufacturing environments, and move between roles through specialist networks and industry events rather than mainstream platforms. This guide, published by RoboticsJobs.co.uk, covers where to advertise robotics roles in the UK in 2026, how the main platforms compare, what employers should expect to pay, and what the data says about hiring across different role types.

Robotics Jobs UK 2026: What to Expect Over the Next 3 Years

Robotics is having a moment that feels qualitatively different from the cycles of hype and disappointment that have characterised the sector in previous decades. The convergence of advances in AI, computer vision, battery technology, and hardware manufacturing has brought robotics to an inflection point — one where the gap between what robots can do in controlled laboratory conditions and what they can do in the unpredictable complexity of the real world is closing faster than at any previous point in the discipline's history. For job seekers, this inflection point is creating a jobs market that is expanding rapidly across a far wider range of industries and role types than robotics has historically occupied. Automotive and manufacturing remain significant employers, but they are now joined by logistics and warehousing, healthcare, agriculture, construction, defence, and the emerging category of humanoid robotics — each generating distinct hiring demand and drawing on overlapping but meaningfully different skill sets. The candidates who will thrive over the next three years are those who understand where the sector is heading — which application areas are scaling from pilot to production, which technologies are defining the architecture of modern robotic systems, and how the definition of a robotics career is evolving beyond the mechanical engineering core toward a much richer intersection of software, AI, and systems engineering. This article breaks down what the UK robotics jobs market is likely to look like through to 2028 — covering the titles emerging right now, the technologies driving employer demand, the skills that will matter most, and how to position your career at the leading edge of one of the most exciting technology transitions of the coming decade.

New Robotics Employers to Watch in 2026: UK and Global Companies Transforming Automation Careers

Robotics is moving rapidly from factory floors into healthcare, logistics, agriculture, autonomous systems, and consumer products. As automation becomes embedded in everyday life, companies are investing in robots that operate alongside humans, analyse environments in real time, and learn from data. In 2026, demand for robotics engineers, software developers, system integrators, and AI specialists continues to surge. For professionals exploring opportunities on www.RoboticsJobs.co.uk , understanding the employers that are scaling, winning contracts, securing investment, or expanding into the UK market is crucial. This article highlights top robotics employers to watch in 2026, spanning innovative startups, high‑growth scale‑ups, and established global technology leaders with strong UK presence.
