Location: Birmingham
Rate: £250 per day (CIS)
Duration: 10-12 Months

We are currently recruiting for an experienced Finishing Site Manager to join a flagship high-rise student accommodation project in Birmingham. This is an excellent opportunity to work on a large-scale development with a well-established main contractor, overseeing the final stages of the build and ensuring the project is completed to the highest standards.

The Role

As Finishing Site Manager, you will be responsible for managing all finishing trades, driving quality, and ensuring apartments and communal areas are completed on programme ready for handover.

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.
