About Us

Ready to take your Environmental career somewhere it can genuinely grow?

We've enjoyed fantastic growth so far, and with long‑term project wins continuing across the region, we’re growing sustainably and looking for another talented professional to join us.

At our client, we’re known for doing things properly. No box‑ticking. No “good enough.” We support clients across renewables, infrastructure, utilities, and land management with environmental oversight that genuinely improves project outcomes.

Now, we’re looking for an onsite Environmental Clerk of Works who shares that ethos.

This isn’t another churn‑and‑burn site role. It’s your chance to:

  • Take ownership of your projects and build meaningful, long‑term experience
  • Access real training, mentoring, and support toward specialist accreditation and chartership
  • Work across some of the most exciting environmental and infrastructure projects in the north of Scotland

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.
