Permanent Recruitment Desk
๐ Winnersh
Ready to take over a warm desk with real growth potential?
We're looking for an experienced Recruitment Consultant to join our Rail Professional Services team at Matchtech.
This is a great opportunity to inherit an established permanent desk with existing opportunities already in play, whilst having the freedom and autonomy to shape its future. With major infrastructure projects continuing to gain momentum across the UK and Ireland, now is an exciting time to join a market that is set for significant growth.
What you'll be doing:
You'll focus on recruiting professionals across the Rail Design market, supporting clients involved in major programmes including HS2, Transpennine Route Upgrade and projects across Ireland. The desk covers a range of disciplines including:
- Structural Design
- Building Structures
- Systems Engineering
- Rail Design & Consultancy Services
As an experienced consultant, you'll be given the autonomy to approach the market in your own way whilst benefiting from the support, knowledge and network of an established team.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Iโm in my final year doing Economics and I donโt know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer โ it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) donโt need a masters. Letโs look at the ones youโd 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 โ that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
