Job Description

Assistant Quantity Surveyor - Residential Construction (London)

Looking to step up to an Assistant level, a role with real responsibility?

Want further exposure to new build and recladding projects across London?

Ready to accelerate your career with a growing contractor?

This is an opportunity to join a growing London-based contractor and developer delivering residential, mixed-use and regeneration schemes, with a strong pipeline across new build and recladding projects.

As an Assistant Quantity Surveyor, you'll support the commercial team across housing, student accommodation, and co-living developments, gaining hands-on experience in cost management, procurement, and project delivery within a fast-paced environment that values ambition and career progression.

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.
