Major Industrial Construction Project | South Wales Area | Long-Term Contract

The Opportunity

An exciting opportunity has arisen for an experienced Construction Manager to join a major industrial megaproject. This role will play a key part in the successful delivery of a large-scale heavy industrial development, overseeing construction activities from execution through to completion.

Working closely with engineering, project delivery, and stakeholder teams, the Construction Manager will lead site operations, ensuring the project is delivered safely, on time, within budget, and to the highest quality standards.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead and manage all on-site construction activities throughout the project lifecycle.
  • Coordinate multidisciplinary teams across engineering, construction, logistics, and project controls functions.
  • Develop, manage, and optimise construction programmes and resource plans.
  • Monitor project progress against key milestones and implement corrective actions where required.
  • Manage budgets, costs, procurement activities, and subcontractor performance.
  • Ensure compliance with project specifications, industry standards, and quality requirements.
  • Drive a strong health, safety, and environmental culture across site operations.
  • Identify, assess, and mitigate project risks affecting programme, cost, or quality.
  • Build and maintain effective relationships with contractors, project teams, and key stakeholders.
  • Provide regular progress reporting, highlighting achievements, challenges, and mitigation strategies.

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.
