As a Senior Project Manager, you will provide strategic project leadership across a range of built environment projects. You will be responsible for managing client relationships, overseeing project delivery, coordinating consultant and contractor teams, and ensuring projects are delivered on time, within budget, and to the highest quality standards.

You will play a key role in supporting the consultancy's continued growth while maintaining exceptional service delivery across a varied project portfolio.

  • Act as the primary point of contact for clients, providing professional advice and project updates.
  • Develop and manage project programmes, budgets, risk registers, and reporting frameworks.
  • Coordinate and manage multidisciplinary consultant teams and contractor stakeholders.
  • Chair project meetings and ensure effective communication between all parties.
  • Monitor project performance against programme, cost, quality, and risk objectives.
  • Identify and resolve project issues while implementing mitigation strategies where required.
  • Support procurement and tendering activities, including consultant and contractor appointments.
  • Ensure compliance with relevant legislation, industry standards, and health and safety requirements.
  • Contribute to business development activities and support the growth of client relationships.
  • Mentor and support junior members of the project management team.

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.
