Contracts Manager / Senior Project Manager – Civil Engineering
North East
£130,000+ package or £600 per day
Immediate Start
We are working with an established specialist civil engineering contractor who has secured a significant programme of work in the North-East and is looking for a senior operational lead to take responsibility for delivery.
This is a substantial civils package covering earthworks, substructures, utilities and concrete works, so we’re looking for somebody who has spent their career delivering this type of work rather than a general building Project Manager.
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.
