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.

Only hits

No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

You will work across a range of building sectors including airports, defence, warehouses, offices and energy centres.

A key part of the role will be to build and develop a lifecycle costing team from the ground up. There is currently no established team, so we are looking for someone who is proactive, hands-on and keen to build something of their own. You will have strong support from the Lead QS and Technical Director, with no initial line management responsibility.

What We're Looking For

Essential:

  • MRICS / Chartered QS
  • Strong understanding of ISO 15686.5
  • Whole life and lifecycle costing experience
  • Experience developing lifecycle models
  • Understanding of capital, operational and running costs
  • Experience advising clients on value and expenditure
  • BREEAM reporting experience
  • Strong QS / Cost & Commercial Management background
  • Proactive and hands-on approach
