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.

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.

How Many Robotics Tools Do You Need to Know to Get a Robotics Job?

If you’re pursuing a career in robotics, it can feel like the list of tools you should learn never ends. One job advert asks for ROS, another mentions Gazebo, another wants experience with Python, Linux, C++, RobotStudio, MATLAB/Simulink, perception stacks, control frameworks, real-time OS, vision libraries — and that’s just scratching the surface. With so many frameworks, languages and platforms, it’s no wonder robotics job seekers feel overwhelmed. But here’s the honest truth most recruiters won’t say explicitly: 👉 They don’t hire you because you know every tool — they hire you because you can apply the right tools to solve real robotics problems reliably and explain your reasoning clearly. Tools matter — but only in service of outcomes. So the real question isn’t how many tools you should know, but which tools you should master and why. For most robotics roles, the answer is significantly fewer — and far more focused — than you might assume. This article breaks down what employers really expect, which tools are core, which are role-specific, and how to focus your learning so you look capable, confident, and ready to contribute from day one.
