We’re working in partnership with a well-established regional contractor based in Glasgow, currently seeking an experienced Estimator to join their team. This contractor has a strong track record delivering fit-out and refurbishment projects across sectors including education, healthcare, commercial, retail, and more. Typical project values range from £500k to £5m.

You’ll be responsible for preparing competitive and commercially viable estimates, working closely with internal teams and external stakeholders to support successful tender submissions.

Responsibilities

  • Prepare cost estimates for fit-out, refurbishment, and construction projects.
  • Analyse drawings, specifications, and technical documents.
  • Liaise with subcontractors and suppliers for competitive pricing.
  • Evaluate project risks and opportunities.
  • Work collaboratively with bid and delivery teams to ensure alignment across all stages of the tender process.
  • Participate in site visits and client meetings where required.

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.
