An exciting opportunity has arisen for an experienced Construction Project Manager to join a Facilities team delivering a major industrial construction project within a highly secure manufacturing environment.

This client-side role will see you acting as the primary point of contact between the business, external consultants, and principal contractors, ensuring the project is delivered safely, on time, within budget, and to the highest quality standards. This is an excellent opportunity to work on a bespoke, technically complex facility supporting critical engineering and manufacturing programmes.

Key Responsibilities

  • Manage the delivery of a large-scale industrial construction project from inception through to completion.
  • Act as the primary client representative, building strong relationships with consultants, contractors, and internal stakeholders.
  • Chair and coordinate project, contractor, and consultant meetings.
  • Monitor programme progress, project budgets, and key milestones, providing regular updates to the wider Facilities and Project teams.
  • Review construction activities to ensure they meet project specifications, quality standards, and programme requirements.
  • Review and approve contractor applications for payment and assess variations.
  • Identify project risks, resolve issues, and escalate where appropriate.
  • Ensure compliance with all relevant health, safety, and quality standards throughout the project lifecycle.
  • Support effective communication between all project stakeholders to ensure successful project delivery.

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.
