Structural & Civils Design Manager

London | £55,000 - £80,000

I'm recruiting for a Design Manager to join the technical team of a major residential developer, working on a significant multi-phase London development as it moves into Stage 3 design.

The development will ultimately deliver 1,500+ homes, alongside a large new park, community spaces, and extensive infrastructure and external works.

The role will have a broad design remit across structures and civils, coordinating consultants, and making sure the building and infrastructure design is properly integrated as the scheme develops.

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.
