We’re looking for an experienced and commercially focused Contract Manager to take ownership of a portfolio of prestigious client contracts across London and the South of England.
This is a highly visible, client-facing position where you’ll be responsible for ensuring exceptional service delivery across multiple sites while building strong, trusted relationships with your clients.
You’ll have ownership of both the operational and commercial performance of your contracts, working closely with internal operational teams, specialist suppliers and client stakeholders to ensure services are delivered safely, efficiently and consistently against contractual SLAs and KPIs.

Your responsibilities will include:
- Taking full operational and commercial ownership of a portfolio of FM contracts across London and the South of England.
- Building strong relationships with clients and becoming a trusted partner for their facilities requirements.
- Ensuring contractual SLAs, KPIs and internal performance measures are consistently achieved.
- Managing service delivery across multiple sites, maintaining high standards of quality and customer experience.
- Working closely with operational teams and specialist subcontractors to ensure effective delivery.
- Monitoring contract performance, identifying risks and implementing appropriate corrective actions.
- Maintaining strong commercial control across the portfolio, including budgets, costs and contract performance.
- Identifying opportunities to improve services, drive efficiencies and add value for clients.
- Supporting contract growth by identifying additional service and commercial opportunities.
- Ensuring all activity is delivered safely and in accordance with company, client and statutory requirements.
- Producing and presenting performance information during regular client and internal review meetings.
- Supporting mobilisation, service improvement and other projects across the Business Unit as required.
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.
