Due to our continued success and growth, we are looking for a Chartered Building Surveyor to join our building surveying team in London.
This is an excellent opportunity to work with prestigious clients across a variety of sectors while developing your career within a growing team.
What You'll Do
You'll split your time between our headquarters in London and client sites, giving you a varied role with a mix of office-based and project work.
Working closely with key client accounts, you'll provide professional advice and technical support across diverse national property portfolios. As the team grows, you'll also have the opportunity to support and mentor junior colleagues, helping them develop their skills and manage project workloads.
Your Responsibilities
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.
