Permanent Opportunity

GBP50,000 to GBP70,000 per Annum

An established and growing water and environmental consultancy is looking for an experienced Associate Hydrogeologist to join its Water Management team in Cambridge.

This is an excellent opportunity for an ambitious Associate Hydrogeologist to take a leading role in delivering groundwater and water resources projects across the UK.

The Role

As an Associate Hydrogeologist, you will:

  • Lead groundwater and water resources projects from inception to completion.
  • Provide technical advice across groundwater resources, water supply and environmental assessment.
  • Work closely with clients and multidisciplinary teams to develop practical, sustainable solutions.
  • Support project management, proposals, tenders and business development.
  • Mentor junior colleagues and contribute to the continued growth of the team.

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.
