Senior Planner - London | Up to £115,000 + Package

Are you an experienced Planning Manager with a proven track record delivering large-scale, complex construction projects?

This is an exciting opportunity to join a leading Tier 1 Main Contractor within their specialist Major Projects Division, managing programmes from tender stage through to handover.

The Role

As Senior Planner, you’ll play a pivotal role within the project team, taking ownership of programmes across the full project lifecycle. You’ll collaborate closely with pre-construction, delivery, and commercial teams to ensure each scheme is set up for success and delivered to the highest standards.

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.
