Hybrid Working | Project Manager – Civil Engineering (Water Sector, Scotland)
We’re working with a fast-growing, privately owned civil engineering contractor that has evolved from a small family business into a major name in Scottish infrastructure — while keeping a genuine people-first culture at its core.
They’re now looking for a high-performing Project Manager to lead the delivery of critical water infrastructure projects across Scotland.
The Opportunity
This is a hands-on leadership role where you’ll take ownership of complex civil engineering schemes from start to finish. You’ll be trusted to drive delivery across programme, commercial performance, and site execution — working closely with site teams, clients, and supply chain partners.
Projects are within live operational environments, so confidence, communication, and calm decision-making are key.
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.
