Senior Quantity Surveyor / Commercial Manager – Infrastructure & Energy

London | £65,000 – £95,000 + Package

I’m currently working with a leading construction and property consultancy that is looking to strengthen its Infrastructure & Energy team in London with the appointment of an experienced Senior Quantity Surveyor / Commercial Manager.

This is an excellent opportunity to work on the delivery of major, complex projects across the infrastructure and energy sectors, with exposure to areas including power, utilities, renewables and Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS).

The role will have a strong commercial and contractual focus, working closely with clients, project teams and contractors throughout the construction phase. You will take responsibility for contract administration, commercial reporting and change control, while helping clients navigate contractual and commercial issues as projects progress.

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.
