Overview

Start Building Tomorrow—Today.

At Ayesa, we deliver cutting-edge solutions that power cities, improve lives, and drive global progress. With over 13,000 professionals in 24 countries, we are a global leader in engineering and infrastructure. We invite the next generation of engineers to join our teams in Madrid or Seville and make a real impact from day one.

We are seeking a Graduate Electrical Engineer, recently graduated from a UK university, to join us via our Graduate Worldwide Programme. You will contribute to the design and delivery of innovative energy and electrical systems across commercial, industrial, and public infrastructure projects.

• Promote design compliance with international standards, health and safety, and environmental legislation.

The main location for the roles is Madrid; however, if you are particularly interested in being based in Seville, we are open to that as well.

Spanish is not required; all tasks can be carried out in English. Optional Spanish classes are available.
