Our client is a leading engineering and project delivery organisation specialising in renewable energy infrastructure. Due to continued growth and a strong pipeline of hydropower projects across the UK, they are seeking a motivated Project Manager to lead the successful delivery of complex engineering schemes from concept through to commissioning.

This is an outstanding opportunity for a Project Manager with a proven background in hydropower or major renewable energy projects who is looking to play a key role in delivering critical low-carbon infrastructure.

Role Overview

Reporting to the Head of Projects, you will take full ownership of multiple hydropower projects, ensuring they are delivered safely, on time, within budget, and to the highest quality standards. You will provide strategic leadership to multidisciplinary engineering teams while acting as the primary point of contact for clients, contractors, suppliers, regulators, and other key stakeholders throughout the project lifecycle.

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.
