Principal Geo-Environmental Engineer / Associate Geo-Environmental Engineer
Central London | Permanent
The opportunity
We're partnering with a well-respected, independent civil and structural consultancy in central London that's on a real growth trajectory. They've built a strong, multidisciplinary Ground Engineering division and are now investing seriously in contaminated land.
This is a Principal Geo-Environmental Engineer or Associate Geo-Environmental Engineer role for someone who wants to do more than just deliver projects. You'll technically lead the contaminated land specialism and play an active role in growing it - with an established pipeline and existing client base already feeding through the business.
What you'll be doing
- Leading contaminated land projects end to end as a Principal Geo-Environmental Engineer or Associate Geo-Environmental Engineer - Phase 1 desk studies through to complex, multi-phase intrusive investigations
- Producing and reviewing Detailed Quantitative Risk Assessments (DQRA) and human health / controlled waters risk assessments
- Supporting and contributing to business development activity and client relationships
- Working collaboratively across a multidisciplinary team - civil, structural, environmental, masterplanning, waste
- Managing and mentoring junior staff
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.
