Carpenter

£40,000-£42,000

Ely,

Gap Construction are proud to be working with a well established, family run building contractor based in Cambridgeshire, who are looking to recruit an experienced Carpenter to join their growing team.

This is an excellent opportunity to join a business with a fantastic reputation for delivering high quality domestic renovations, commercial projects and planned maintenance works. With an in house joinery workshop and a varied workload, no two weeks are the same.

Performance Objectives

  • Carry out first and second fix carpentry across domestic and commercial projects.
  • Install doors, staircases, windows and bespoke joinery to a high standard.
  • Complete renovation, refurbishment and planned maintenance works.
  • Work from technical drawings and resolve site issues where required.
  • Maintain excellent standards of workmanship, ensuring every project is completed with attention to detail.
  • Work collaboratively with colleagues and clients to deliver projects safely and efficiently.

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.
