- Lead, support and develop team members through effective management, coaching and training.
- Manage the design process, providing clear direction to the Design Manager and consultant team.
- Produce and monitor information-required schedules.
- Ensure materials, plant and subcontract packages are procured in line with the construction programme.
- Monitor progress against programme and chair regular project and subcontractor meetings.
- Maintain the highest standards of health, safety, environmental compliance and construction quality.
- Undertake regular site inspections and ensure any issues are addressed promptly.
- Take ownership of project finances in collaboration with the commercial team, completing and presenting monthly CVRs.
- Chair client meetings and provide accurate progress reports to senior management.
- Identify and mitigate potential contractual disputes, claims, design issues and defects.
- Manage relationships with the client, healthcare end users, consultants, subcontractors and wider stakeholders.
- Ensure all project documentation, systems and internal procedures are complete and maintained.
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.
