Are you a proven Risk Manager with a track record of protecting complex infrastructure programmes in a highly regulated, live operational environment?
This is a high-impact opportunity to embed into a major defence infrastructure programme, where your risk leadership will directly support safe, continuous operations and delivery at pace. If you thrive on complexity, stakeholder influence, and meaningful outcomes, apply now or read on.
The Opportunity
Join a major public-sector infrastructure delivery organisation with a clear transformation vision: delivering a better estate, a better service, and a better business. You’ll work in a culture that values professional standards, collaboration, and disciplined project delivery, offering the chance to contribute to nationally significant programmes, alongside experienced multi-disciplinary teams, with a strong focus on safety, governance, and long-term capability.
The Role
As Risk Manager, you will provide risk management advice to two critical projects. This is a site-based role with an expectation of three days per week on site, working closely with the Project Manager, Joint Project Team (JPT) and delivery partners.
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.
