- Plan and schedule labour and resources so that service targets are met efficiently.
- Visit sites, assess risks and oversee work through to successful completion.

- Champion health, safety and wellbeing across the service.
- Provide clear direction to subcontractors and control quality, timescales and costs.
- Act as a key point of contact for customers, providing advice and resolving complaints effectively.
- Maintain accurate records, audit trails and performance information, making full use of relevant IT systems.

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.

Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
