🚨 Civil Design Engineer | Water & Wastewater | Hybrid (3 days office/site)

  • Leading the civil design scope across multiple water and wastewater projects.
  • Coordinating and reviewing designs produced by external consultants.
  • Producing and developing civil design packages including earthworks, drainage, foundations and structures.
  • Collaborating closely with mechanical, electrical and process engineering teams to ensure fully integrated solutions.
  • Working directly with clients, managing technical queries and ensuring designs meet regulatory and buildability requirements.
  • Supporting projects through feasibility, detailed design and construction.

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.
