Project Planner / Senior Project Planner
Location: Leeds (Hybrid – 3 days in the office) Salary: Competitive + Annual Bonus + Benefits
The Opportunity
I'm currently working with a leading multidisciplinary consultancy that is looking to strengthen its Planning team in Leeds.
This opportunity is ideally suited to an experienced Project Planner looking to step into a Senior role, or someone who has recently become a Senior Project Planner and wants to continue developing within a supportive and collaborative environment.
You'll work closely with an experienced leadership team, gaining direct exposure to key decision-makers while delivering planning support across a diverse portfolio of major infrastructure and engineering projects.
This isn't a role where you'll get lost in a large team. You'll have the opportunity to make a genuine impact, develop your technical and stakeholder management skills, and play an important part in the continued growth of the Leeds office.
The Role
As a Project Planner / Senior Project Planner, you'll be responsible for developing, maintaining and monitoring project programmes across a variety of complex engineering and infrastructure projects.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
Experience within infrastructure, construction, rail, highways, water, energy, aviation, nuclear or other engineering sectors would all be considered. The sector is less important than having strong planning fundamentals and confidence using Primavera P6.
Why Apply?
- Work directly alongside experienced senior leaders with genuine access to decision-makers.
- Diverse portfolio of high-profile infrastructure and engineering projects.
- Clear opportunities for career progression as the Leeds team continues to grow.
- Supportive environment with excellent mentoring and professional development.
- Hybrid working with 3 days per week in the Leeds office.
- No client-site travel – you'll be based entirely from the Leeds office.
- Collaborative team culture where your ideas and contributions are genuinely valued.
- Competitive salary, annual bonus and comprehensive benefits package.
If you're looking for an opportunity to take the next step in your planning career, work on exciting projects and join a consultancy where your development is a genuine priority, I'd love to hear from you.
