Not every move is about money.
But buying a house makes stability matter. If you're an Electrical Hardware Designer who wants a role that actually supports you — not just throws you into the deep end — this could be for you.

We're hiring someone to join a close-knit team designing control systems for industrial automation and process environments. It’s a permanent, office-based role within a commutable distance from Telford. If you’re used to EPLAN, even better — that's what we use — but we won’t discount someone with strong foundations and the right mindset.

We won’t pretend to be cutting edge or the biggest name in the game. But we’re not restructuring, we’re not replacing you a month after you start, and we’re not expecting you to “hit the ground running” without support.

You’ll be solving real engineering problems.
Working on a mix of new builds and system upgrades. Helping with everything from schematics and panel layouts to making sure your designs actually make it through manufacture and install without a hitch.

This would suit someone who's hit a ceiling — or been burned by bad management — and wants to go somewhere they’ll be backed properly. If you’ve been mentoring junior engineers or guiding installs, that’s a plus.

Salary around £50–55K, based on what you bring.
We’re realistic. If you’re on more but looking for the right fit, let’s talk. You won’t be dragged through four rounds of interviews either.

Veterans in Robotics: A Military‑to‑Civilian Pathway into Autonomous‑Systems Careers

Introduction From bomb‑disposal droids rolling through Basra to AI‑driven picking arms inside Ocado warehouses, robotics has already transformed how we fight wars and fill shopping baskets. The UK Government’s Robotics & Autonomous Systems (RAS) Roadmap 2030 predicts £100 billion in annual economic impact and 260,000 new jobs by the end of the decade. The Ministry of Defence (MoD) mirrors this growth with programmes such as Project Theseus (autonomous last‑mile resupply) and NavyX Autonomy Accelerator. Veterans—battle‑tested in remote‑handling, mission planning, and safety protocols—have precisely the mindset employers need. Whether you piloted EOD robots, maintained UAVs, or orchestrated logistic convoys, you already think in joints, sensors, and control loops. This guide shows you how to translate military experience into civilian robotics roles, tap MoD transition programmes, and secure a rewarding career at the cutting edge of automation.
