Contract Manager / Quantity Surveyor | £75,000 - £85,000 | London | Main Contractor | Permanent

Not every role I work on fits neatly into a box……and this is one of them.

I am working with a well-established London main contractor who is looking for somebody equally as comfortable managing projects as they are keeping a close eye on the commercials.

  • You will typically be overseeing 3-5 projects at any one time, ranging from around £100k up to £1m.
  • The work is incredibly varied too, from commercial fit out and CAT A office refurbishments through to high-end residential refurbishments and restoration projects.
  • Established over 30 years ago, the business has built an excellent reputation delivering refurbishment and restoration projects for architects, building surveyors, managing agents, and commercial clients across London.

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.
