Your new company

A leading construction and regeneration business is seeking an experienced Project Manager to join its growing social housing team. Working across Hertfordshire, you'll play a key role in delivering refurbishment and retrofit programmes that improve existing housing stock, enhance energy efficiency, and bring homes up to modern living standards. With a strong pipeline of secured work, this is an excellent opportunity to join a business committed to quality, sustainability, and community impact.

Your new role

As Project Manager, you will take full responsibility for the successful delivery of retrofit and refurbishment projects within occupied social housing environments. Managing schemes from pre-construction through to completion, you'll oversee site teams, subcontractors, programme delivery, budgets, and client relationships while ensuring minimal disruption to residents.

Key responsibilities include:

  • Managing multiple refurbishment and retrofit projects.
  • Leading operational delivery, ensuring projects are completed safely, on time, and within budget.
  • Building and maintaining strong relationships with clients, residents, and stakeholders.
  • Managing site teams and subcontractor performance.
  • Monitoring programme, quality, and commercial performance.
  • Ensuring compliance with all health, safety, and environmental standards.

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.
