Project Director

I'm working with one of the UK's leading main contractors to appoint an experienced Project Director to play a key role in the growth of their dedicated CAT B Fit-Out division based in Central London.

This isn't a start-up. It's a strategically backed business unit with significant investment from the executive leadership team, combining the security of an established contractor with the opportunity to build and shape a growing division.

Initially, you'll lead the delivery of CAT B fit-out packages across an existing portfolio of commercial projects, while helping establish and expand a specialist fit-out offering that is set for substantial growth over the coming years.

The Opportunity

This role is perfect for someone with an entrepreneurial mindset who wants to influence the direction of a growing business. You'll have the opportunity to help shape the division, develop client relationships and deliver exceptional projects for some of the UK's leading commercial developers and asset owners.

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.
