Technical Director

Northamptonshire | Office-Based | Excellent Salary + Benefits

We're partnering with a specialist engineering business looking for an experienced Technical Director to lead the technical direction of its Automated Test Equipment (ATE) division.

This is a hands-on technical leadership role where you'll act as the senior authority across complex ATE projects, working closely with customers, leading multidisciplinary engineering teams, and shaping innovative test solutions from concept through to delivery.

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.
