Quantity Surveyor | Water Reactive Maintenance Contract

Location: Esher, Surrey or Kentish Town, London

Salary: £40,000 - £50,000 + £4,500 Car Allowance + Private Healthcare + Pension + 25 Days Leave (plus BH)

I'm recruiting for a Quantity Surveyor to join an established infrastructure contractor delivering reactive maintenance and developer services works for Thames Water. The role can be based from either Esher or Kentish Town and would suit someone who enjoys working in a fast-moving environment where no two days are quite the same. You'll be looking after the commercial management of a high volume of smaller-value works, working closely with the operational team to keep projects moving and ensure costs are well controlled.

Whether you're already working within the water sector or have a background in civil engineering, highways or groundworks, this is a great opportunity to join a business with a healthy pipeline of secured work and clear opportunities to quickly develop your career.

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.
