New year, new job. Are you a Civil Engineer with four or more years UK consultancy experience looking to step up and take ownership of more complex infrastructure projects in 2025? This is an excellent opportunity for a Civil Engineer who wants progression, technical responsibility and exposure to high-quality schemes across the North West.
You will be joining a respected and high-performing civil engineering consultancy delivering residential and commercial developments ranging from smaller site improvements to large multi-million-pound projects. This Civil Engineer role offers close collaboration with senior staff, client-facing responsibility and a clear route towards senior-level involvement within a supportive team environment.
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.
