Your new company
An international consultancy with an established and busy business across the north is looking to add a graduate building surveyor into their Leeds team due to growth and development opportunities within the organisation. With clients across multiple sectors but a focus on education and healthcare. Your new company has a proven track record of consistently bringing people through their APC and valuing the development of their team to progress through the organisation.
Your new role
In your new role you will gain valuable experience across multiple sectors and disciplines of work as you grow and progress through the early part of your career. You will get a chance to be involved in managing your own projects while working alongside more senior members of the team. The office is a hybrid environment where you will split your time between being on site, office collaborative working, and working from home.
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.
