Senior Quantity Surveyor
Wigan | Consultancy | Residential, Mixed-Use & Commercial Projects
Are you a Senior Quantity Surveyor looking to work on high-profile developments with genuine variety and the opportunity to influence projects from inception through to completion?

You'll take the lead on a diverse portfolio of projects ranging from £5m to £150m+, delivering both pre and post-contract services across residential, Build to Rent (PRS), PBSA, mixed-use and commercial developments.

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.
