An exciting opportunity exists for an Architectural professional to join an established building contractor and take the next step in their career.

Our client is a long established, highly successful contractor operating across both the private and public sectors. They offer a wide portfolio of interesting projects in building and civil engineering, excellent opportunities for training and professional development and an attractive workplace culture.

About The Role

This is an excellent opportunity for a design-focused professional, ideally with an architectural background, to take on a key role within a construction contractor.

Working within a friendly and supportive team, you will be responsible for coordinating the design process from pre-construction through to delivery, ensuring that designs are fully coordinated, buildable, compliant and aligned with the project programme and commercial requirements.

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.
