The Company
Due to continued growth, my client is looking to appoint a Compliance Manager to take ownership of and further develop the company's compliance, environmental, health & safety and management systems. Having grown from a £6m turnover business to £10m turnover in recent years, they are now seeking an experienced compliance professional who can help take the business to the next stage. This is a genuine opportunity to join a growing organisation, influence company-wide processes and play a key role in shaping future standards and best practice.
Whilst experience within the façade industry would be advantageous, candidates from a wider construction, specialist subcontractor or main contractor background will also be considered.
The Role
This position will suit a knowledgeable and proactive Compliance Manager who can take ownership of existing systems and identify opportunities for further improvement. The successful candidate will work closely with the senior leadership team, managing and developing the company's compliance framework, accreditations, environmental systems and health & safety processes. The business already has management systems in place but is looking for someone with the technical knowledge and practical experience to refine, strengthen and streamline them as the company continues to grow. The role is predominantly office based in London, although there will be regular site visits to become embedded within the business, carry out audits, assess compliance standards and support operational teams with implementation and continuous improvement initiatives.
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.
