About Redbridge

Redbridge is an ambitious, diverse and exciting east-London borough. What we do is driven by changing our relationship with local people to support our vision. As a result, we've developed innovative ways to build our communities and transform our Council.

We're one of the fastest growing parts of the country and the third most diverse London borough. Our communities are attracted by a mixture of excellent schools, relatively affordable housing, high-quality open space and rapid transport connections into the heart of the city.

About the Role

We are seeking a motivated and organised Apprentice Contracts Monitoring Assistant to support the effective management of leisure and culture contracts across the borough. This is an excellent opportunity for someone looking to develop a career in contract management, performance monitoring and client-side service delivery. You will play a key role in the day-to-day monitoring of contracts, helping to ensure services are safe, compliant, high quality and responsive to the needs of residents. Working across a diverse portfolio that includes leisure centres, parks, play areas, outdoor gyms, open spaces, museums, libraries, sports development programmes and cultural venues and activities, you will gain valuable experience in a varied and rewarding environment.

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.
