Bennett & Game are representing a growing residential developer who are seeking a Senior Design Coordinator (Pre-Construction) to join their expanding Technical team in Pontefract.
This is an exciting opportunity to join a forward-thinking housebuilder that has recently rebranded as part of its ambitious growth strategy. The business is continuing to expand across Yorkshire, with future plans to grow into the East Midlands, and has a secure pipeline of residential developments. Working closely with the Technical Director, you will play a key role in supporting land acquisition, pre-construction activities and technical due diligence across a range of housing developments.
This is a unique opportunity that combines pre-construction technical coordination with elements of live project design management.

The business offers genuine long-term progression, with the opportunity to develop alongside a growing Technical department.
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.
