The role:

An electronics business in Wigan who specialise in the design and manufacture of energy measurement devices for a variety of sectors, including utilities and rail are looking to hire a Graduate or Junior Electronics Engineer to their R&D team.

The business will consider a graduate or junior electronics engineer with 1 to 3 years of experience. You should be an Electronics Engineer who has an interest in Analogue electronics.
