Konker is recruiting for a Senior Chartered Building Surveyor to join a well-established, family-run multi-disciplinary consultancy based on the outskirts of Portsmouth.

With a team of around 24 people and exceptionally low staff turnover, this is a business built around collaboration, trust, and long-term careers.

  • You’ll be joining a close-knit Building Surveying team with the opportunity to step into a leadership role, help shape the future of the department, and work towards potential equity share in the business.
  • The practice delivers a wide range of projects across the South of England, with around 90% of work focused on MOD schemes alongside Central Government, education, local authority, and private sector clients.
  • You’ll work closely with Architects and M&E Engineers on technically interesting, high-quality projects.

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.
