Location: Remote (UK/Europe) with international travel Business: Rapiscan Systems – Aviation Detection Security


Rapiscan Systems is a global leader in security inspection and detection technology, trusted by airports, governments, customs authorities and security agencies worldwide. We are seeking a commercially focused Director of Product Management - Aviation Security to lead the strategic direction of our Aviation Detection Security portfolio. This role owns the long-term product vision, roadmap and lifecycle strategy for solutions used across the global aviation security market.

This is not a traditional product management position. We are looking for an industry expert who understands the complexities of aviation security screening and can influence both internal stakeholders and key customers to drive innovation, market growth and product success.

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.
