Description

As our next Quantity Surveyor, you’ll be the key figurehead in your business area providing the commercial back-end functionality for Breedon’s surfacing solutions business. You are meticulous in your work and thrive on delivering exceptional service. You are commercially focused and have the confidence and credibility to excel in customer front end meetings.

At Breedon Group, a job is a journey, not just a function. We’re the largest independent construction materials group in the UK and we’re on the up. Here, you can make your mark. Here, progressive change isn’t constrained by excessive red tape and layers of bureaucracy.

No role is pigeon-holed at Breedon. As Quantity Surveyor, you’ll be part of an agile and collaborative team environment. No need-to-know. No hidden agendas. This is an entrepreneurial business in which actions follow words and all staff pull together.

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.
