About the Company
WaterWise Utilities is looking to recruit an experienced Quantity Surveyor to support the commercial delivery of our water, multi-utility and civil engineering projects across Scotland.
With a strong pipeline of ongoing and upcoming work, we're seeking a commercially minded individual who can help drive project performance while working closely with our operational and procurement teams. The successful candidate will primarily lead commercial activities across live projects while also providing procurement support where required.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys a varied role, takes ownership of their work and wants to make a meaningful contribution within an established utilities business.
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.
