This is an excellent opportunity for a Quantity Surveyor with 2–5 years’ experience who is keen to develop their commercial experience within a major construction environment.

  • Review and analyse subcontractor tender returns.
  • Prepare and administer subcontractor documentation.
  • Assist with monthly valuations, payments and cost reporting.
  • Support the assessment and management of variations, claims and other commercial matters.
  • Monitor project costs and maintain accurate commercial records.
  • Assist with cost/value reconciliation and cash flow reporting.
  • Support the preparation and agreement of external valuations.
  • Assist with subcontractor final accounts and commercial close-out.
  • Liaise with subcontractors, clients, designers and internal project teams.
  • Identify potential commercial issues and escalate where appropriate.
  • Work closely with the wider project team to support successful project delivery.

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.
