Our client, a well-established and growing multi-disciplinary construction company, is looking to appoint an experienced Construction Director to join their senior leadership team. Reporting directly to the Managing Director and Company Owner, this is a key appointment that will play a pivotal role in driving operational performance, improving business processes, and supporting the company's continued growth.

This is an excellent opportunity for an ambitious construction professional who has a proven track record of leading large operational teams and delivering cladding remediation and/or social housing projects.

As Construction Director, you will provide strategic and operational leadership across multiple projects, ensuring programmes are delivered safely, efficiently, on time and within budget. You will also be responsible for reviewing, implementing and improving business processes and systems to drive consistency, efficiency and performance across the business.

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.
