Job Description

As our business continues to grow we are looking for a Contracts Manager to join our close knit team to deliver projects across a variety of markets.

The role would primarily involve working in the Midlands and South of England. The core function of the role would be to manage new orders through to ‘sign off’ on completion. To achieve success would require organising and managing Pre Start Meetings, setting out and managing sites, managing installation teams (both in house and sub contractor) and liaising with the Sales Team and customers to achieve excellent outcomes.

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.
