Client Side Quantity Surveyor | Events & Venues | UK-Wide Projects
I’m proud to be partnering again with a leading business within the live entertainment sector, having successfully supported them earlier this year.
They’re now looking to add another Senior Quantity Surveyor to the team, but this time with a stronger site and construction focus.
You’ll work across a range of refurbishment and fit-out projects, typically around £6m, taking ownership of the commercial side and working closely with contractors and project teams.
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.
