Are you a project-focused Building Surveyor? Want to work with autonomy, flexibility and genuine responsibility?
I’m working with one of London’s fastest-growing independent construction and property consultancies, who are looking to appoint a Senior Building Surveyor to play a key role across their Commercial and Education service lines.
This is an excellent opportunity for a project-focused Building Surveyor who enjoys taking ownership, building client relationships and delivering high-quality projects from inception through to completion.
The Opportunity
You’ll join a modern, forward-thinking consultancy with an established client base and a strong pipeline of work across the commercial and education sectors.
You’ll have the autonomy to lead projects, manage clients and support the continued growth of these service lines. The role offers genuine responsibility and the opportunity to make an impact rather than simply becoming another member of a large team.
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.
