We’re looking for a Head of Development
We’re looking for a Head of Development to join ateb and take a leading role in shaping our development ambitions across West Wales.
With a salary of £70K – £74K per annum, this is an opportunity to take strategic responsibility for our development programme - identifying new opportunities, building strong partnerships and helping to make sure we develop the right homes, in the right places, for the long-term benefit of our customers and communities.
Working closely with our Executive Director for Development & Assets, you’ll help develop and deliver ateb’s Development Strategy and maintain a strong pipeline of opportunities. You’ll build relationships with Welsh Government, Local Authorities, landowners, developers, contractors, consultants, funders and other key partners to help secure the opportunities, funding and investment we need to grow.
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.
