What To Expect
EMEA Infrastructure Development team is seeking a Senior Project Controller to provide independent oversight of project cost performance across the EMEA Real Estate portfolio partnering with Construction Project Managers, Design, Procurement, and Finance.
You will help shift the organization from ad-hoc cost tracking to a structured, transparent controls partnership, improving forecast accuracy, spend visibility, and execution quality while regional teams stay focused on delivery.
What You'll Do
- Track approved budgets, commitments, expenditures, and invoiced costs across the portfolio
- Preparation of portfolio-level cost performance reviews and reporting for leadership
- Support change management - change orders, scope changes, pricing review - and help keep spending aligned with approved scope and budgets
- Help identify and escalate cost, scope, and delivery
- Support KPI tracking, portfolio reporting validation, and standardized project/executive reporting (dashboards, Power BI, status reports)
- Support data quality, master data alignment, and dashboard governance across regional project data
- Act as a key stakeholder during ATP (Authorization to Proceed) and major project gate reviews
- Support milestone tracking and schedule visibility where needed; extended planning ownership may expand as the function develops
- Help establish controlling function as it scales - scope, deliverables, processes, and collaboration models with regional teams and HQ
- Pilot and refine approaches, act as a trusted partner to regional teams, reducing PM reporting burden so they can focus on delivery
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.
