Building Surveyor (Residential)

£55,000 - £65,000 + Training + Progression + Funded Qualifications
Orpington

Are you a Building Surveyor from a residential background or similar, looking to join an ambitious company offering plenty of in-house development and training, and a scope to progress into a management role in the future?

Established more than 20 years ago, this social housing construction specialist delivers both the refurbishment of existing properties and the development of innovative new buildings. Consistent growth and a strong industry reputation underpin its continued success.

In this role, you will carry out surveys on residential buildings while acting as a senior member of the team, providing guidance and leadership throughout. You will also liaise with key clients and serve as a primary point of contact for the business.

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.
