Quantity Surveyor
Heavy Civils / Enviroment Agency
Norfolk
Up to £55,000 plus company package
Our client, a leading civil engineering contractor, is looking to appoint an experienced Quantity Surveyor to join their Regional Civils team on a major coastal defence project in Norfolk.
This is an excellent opportunity to become part of a high-profile infrastructure scheme that will play a vital role in protecting local communities, businesses, and infrastructure from the ongoing risks of coastal erosion and flooding.
Working alongside an experienced and collaborative project team, you'll support the successful commercial delivery of this complex civil engineering project while gaining exposure to challenging engineering solutions, stakeholder engagement, and long-term infrastructure 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.
