Senior Project Manager | Pre-Construction | Solar + Storage

Location: UK Remote (Office in London)

We are currently partnered with a leading renewable energy developer with a significant portfolio of utility-scale solar PV and battery energy storage projects across the UK, including a growing portfolio of complex NSIP/DCO projects.

As the business continues to transition projects from development into delivery, they are looking for a Senior Project Manager – Pre-Construction to take ownership of projects through the critical commercialisation phase, from Ready-to-Build through to FID and Notice to Proceed.

The Role

Reporting into the Head of Construction, you will sit at the centre of the project team, coordinating closely with Project Directors, Commercial, Development, Grid, Engineering, Procurement, Land and Asset Management functions.

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.
