Project Manager
Oxford
£45,000 – £55,000 + package
I’m working with a well-regarded, independent construction consultancy in Oxford that’s looking to appoint a Project Manager to support its growing portfolio of work, particularly across the healthcare and life sciences sectors.
This is a great opportunity for someone coming from a consultancy background who enjoys being hands-on across the full project lifecycle and working closely with clients in technically complex environments. The business delivers a mix of new build and refurbishment schemes, often within live or highly regulated settings, so experience in similar sectors would be highly beneficial.
You’ll be joining a close-knit team with a strong regional reputation, where you’ll have real ownership over your projects and direct exposure to clients from an early stage.
The role will involve:
- Managing projects from inception through to completion
- Acting as the key point of contact for clients and stakeholders
- Coordinating multidisciplinary teams including consultants and contractors
- Administering and working with JCT forms of contract
- Monitoring programme, cost, and risk to ensure successful delivery
- Supporting across multiple schemes within the healthcare and life sciences space
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.
