Active Force Recruitment is pleased to be recruiting on behalf of a leading automotive organisation for an experienced Level 3 or Level 4 Diagnostic & Specialist Technician to join its established workshop based in Portbury, Bristol.

This is an excellent opportunity for a skilled technician with proven diagnostic expertise to join a professional, high-performing workshop where quality, efficiency and technical excellence are at the heart of every operation.

The Role

As a Diagnostic & Specialist Technician, you will be responsible for diagnosing, repairing and maintaining a diverse range of vehicles, ensuring all work is completed safely, accurately and to the highest standards. Working as part of an experienced workshop team, you will play a key role in delivering first-class technical support and maintaining exceptional levels of workmanship.

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.
