Proofreader – Property Reports (RICS Homebuyer and Disrepair Reports)
Contract – Minimum 6 months
Join a Surveying Company That's Doing Things Differently.
Our client is not your typical surveying practice.
They are a fast-growing nationwide team of Regulated Building Surveyors who believe professional doesn't have to mean boring. They work hard, care about quality, embrace technology and genuinely enjoy what they do.
Their mission is simple: produce outstanding survey reports that are clear, practical and genuinely useful for their clients. Every report leaving their business represents their reputation, which is why they are looking for someone with an eagle eye for detail to join their quality team.
If spotting the missing comma, inconsistent condition rating or awkward sentence gives you an unreasonable amount of satisfaction, you'll probably love working with our client.
The Role
You'll be the final pair of eyes before their Homebuyer Reports reach clients.
Working remotely and with complete flexibility, you'll help ensure every report is polished, professional and consistent with their high standards.
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

A Little About Our Client
Our client believes great businesses are built by great people.
There's no unnecessary hierarchy, no micromanagement and no corporate nonsense. They trust their team, value ideas and believe work should be enjoyable as well as rewarding.

If that sounds like your kind of company, they would love to hear from you.
