Job Introduction

We’re looking for an Engineering Project Manager to manage investment projects that support the supply of Aggregates and Ready-Mix Concrete (RMX). You’ll work closely with Operational Management, Finance, Procurement, Estates & Geology, National Accounts, Operational Excellence, contractors and regulators to ensure projects are safe, efficient and deliver long-term value.

Responsibilities

  • Apply strong knowledge of CDM regulations and proactively manage the client/principal contractor relationship.
  • Build and maintain positive working relationships with key internal and external stakeholders.
  • Support capability development through training, mentoring and coaching to ensure projects are designed for safe, efficient and low-cost operation.
  • Use project management and engineering expertise to identify cost-saving opportunities and develop innovative solutions.
  • Apply value engineering principles and ensure engineering best practice is followed across all project stages.
  • Drive the implementation of best-practice engineering solutions and ensure compliance with all standards and procedures.
  • Deliver and manage area and regional action plans to support improved operational performance.
  • Contribute to the delivery of strategic initiatives aimed at driving operational excellence across the business.

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.
