270 Contracts Recruitment Consultant - Manchester
A growing, profitable technology recruitment business is looking to hire an experienced Contracts Recruitment Consultant to join its Manchester team.
This is a 270 contracts role, focused initially on candidate delivery and contractor engagement, with the opportunity to develop client relationships and build an individual billing desk over time.
The Role
The successful candidate will work across a broad range of technology contract vacancies across the UK and Europe. The immediate focus will be on delivery and building a strong contractor network, rather than requiring an established client book from day one.
Key responsibilities will include:
- Sourcing and qualifying contractors against live technology vacancies.
- Building and maintaining a strong network of contract technology professionals.
- Working across markets including DevOps, Security, SRE, Data, Software and Platform.
- Managing candidates throughout the recruitment process and providing a high-quality experience.
- Working closely with clients and the wider team to understand requirements and deliver quickly.
- Managing multiple vacancies and prioritising effectively.
- Developing client relationships and individual billing opportunities over time.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

- Strong candidate sourcing and engagement skills.
