Job Opportunity: Contract Test Technician

Redline Group are partnering with a well-established UK electronics manufacturer, supporting a broad customer base across high-reliability sectors including transport, industrial, and aerospace. Due to increasing workload and the need to maintain high standards across quality and turnaround times, they are now looking to bring in a Contract Test Technician to strengthen the team.

This contract will not accept candidates operating via a PSC, therefore you will be required to work via an Umbrella company.

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.
