Senior Project Manager – Contract (Oxford / Cambridge / Bristol)

I am working with innovative organisations across the UK space and aerospace sector seeking experienced Senior Project Managers to support the delivery of complex satellite, spacecraft, and advanced technology programmes.

This is a contract role focused on leading multidisciplinary engineering projects from concept through to delivery, ensuring successful execution across technical, commercial, and schedule objectives.

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.
