Infrastructure Project Director

Strategy Director: Transport and Infrastructure | Lancashire County Council

Location: Lancashire, England

Lancashire, home to 1.5 million residents, over 55,000 businesses, and an economy worth over £40 billion, is one of the largest and most significant counties in England. With a newly established Combined County Authority and upcoming Local Government Reorganisation, along with major investments in transport and infrastructure, we are seeking exceptional candidates for this pivotal leadership role.

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.
