Procter Street are supporting a well-established civils contractor with the recruitment of a Contract Manager to join their growing team.

This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced Site Manager looking to take the next step in their career and move into a Contract Manager position.

The company delivers a range of civil engineering and infrastructure projects across the North West, working across both the private and public sectors, with projects covering highways, infrastructure, groundworks, and piling.

The Role

This is a predominantly operational Contract Manager position, so we are particularly interested in candidates who have a strong background in site delivery, project management, and leading teams.

You will be responsible for overseeing projects from mobilisation through to completion, ensuring they are delivered safely, efficiently, on programme, and to the required quality standards.

Key Responsibilities

  • Experience within civil engineering, highways, infrastructure, groundworks, or piling.
  • A strong understanding of site delivery and project operations.
  • Experience managing teams and coordinating subcontractors.
  • Good knowledge of health & safety and quality requirements.
  • Strong organisational and communication skills.
  • The ability to manage multiple priorities and projects.
  • Experience working with clients and project stakeholders.
  • A working knowledge of NEC contracts.
  • A commercial awareness and understanding of project costs, variations, and change, although strong commercial experience is not the primary requirement.

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.
