The Company

We are seeking an experienced Senior Bid Writer and Bid Writers to join our client’s team, a leading Tier 1 civil engineering and infrastructure business. Based in either London or Wiltshire, the company currently turns over more than £105m in the UK and has over £1bn worth of projects currently live across the next 3-year programmes across the following projects: tunnelling, station upgrades, TFL bridge, hydro-power, data centre and Sellafield infrastructure works.

This is a high-profile opportunity for a commercially astute estimating professional with a proven track record of developing competitive tender submissions that secure work and withstand rigorous commercial scrutiny.

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.
