Looking to strengthen your technical capability within a growing civil engineering team? This Civil Technician opportunity in Leicester offers structured development and exposure across infrastructure and drainage projects.

A well-established consultancy is expanding its civils function and seeking a Civil Technician to support residential and commercial development schemes. As a Civil Technician, you will contribute to drainage and highway design, working closely with engineers and the wider design team to deliver technical packages from planning through to approval.

Role Overview

The Civil Technician will assist with modelling, drawing production and submission preparation, playing a key role in project delivery. This Civil Technician role suits someone with at least two years UK consultancy experience who is confident using drainage software and working collaboratively within a design environment.

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.
