At Skanska

At Skanska, we're helping to shape the future of Britain, and we're looking for experienced leaders to help deliver a strong pipeline of work.

From major commercial offices, to building future critical national infrastructure, such as data centres, hospitals and defence facilities.

We Are Looking For Senior Commercial Managers

We are looking for Senior Commercial Managers to join our business. You will play a key role in leading the delivery of major schemes. From beginning to end, you'll drive successful outcomes for our customers, communities and people.

Given the scale and diversity of our project portfolio, we're looking for leaders who are flexible and open to working across different locations throughout the UK, bringing their expertise where it can make the greatest impact.

We are currently looking for Senior Commercial Managers who will lead and oversee the commercial function of high-value projects up to and exceeding £300 million. As a key member of a Project Leadership Team, you will be responsible for managing project finances, contractual obligations, and commercial performance, ensuring alignment with internal policies and customer/stakeholder expectations.

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.
