The Role
About The Role
MTVH are looking for a Clerk of Works to provide a high-quality inspection and quality control service across our development projects. Working within the Construction team, you will play a key role in ensuring that projects are delivered to the highest standards of quality, safety, and compliance. You will carry out site inspections, monitor construction progress, and provide technical support to Development teams, helping to ensure that completed homes meet MTVH standards and all regulatory requirements.
Therefore, as part of the team, you will work closely with contractors, consultants, and internal stakeholders throughout the construction lifecycle. You will attend site meetings, identify and report quality issues, support defect management, and act as MTVH’s representative during inspections, handovers, and remedial works, ensuring excellent outcomes for our customers and developments.
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.
