Stock Condition Surveyor (Contract)
Our client continues to support housing providers nationwide through the delivery of large-scale Stock Condition Survey and Housing Health and Safety Rating System (HHSRS) assessment programmes across the UK.
Following the successful completion of approximately 4,000 surveys, a further programme of circa 3,800 surveys is now commencing, with completion required before the end of the year.
We are seeking experienced Stock Condition Surveyors to support survey delivery across Coventry and Northamptonshire as part of this ongoing national programme. These are contract opportunities with an immediate start available.
This position is offered on an hourly rate basis, either through PAYE or Umbrella arrangements.
Please note that a DBS check will be required. Depending on the nature of some surveys, an Enhanced DBS may also be necessary.
Some working away from home may be required; however, an overnight allowance will be provided to cover accommodation costs.
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.
