About the Opportunity

Join us and you’ll have the chance to work on world-class projects as part of our Tunnelling and Ground Engineering business.

As part of that support, Jacobs has developed one of the leading and longest-standing tunnel and ground engineering consultancy capabilities in the UK and Ireland, with around 400 staff delivering practical, innovative and sustainable solutions to ground-related problems.

For example, as a structural geologist you might use geological and geophysical data to characterise subsurface sites for nuclear waste and CO2 storage, whereas in your role as an engineering geologist, you could help define the ground conditions for some of the world’s largest infrastructure projects.

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.
