Description

Why Soben?

We’re an award-winning construction consultancy with huge ambitions to put ourselves firmly on the map. We’ve come a long way since operations commenced in 2011 but now is the time to step on the gas and realize our true potential.

It is a hugely exciting time to join our business and we have some amazing times ahead of us. We’re targeting to have 1000 people globally by 2030 to support our expansion plans in current locations as well as additional territories.

If you want to play an integral part in achieving our ambitious plans for growth and delivering an exceptional consultancy service for our clients in the EMEA region, whilst progressing your own career in a supportive and dynamic environment, we want to hear from you!

About the opportunity

We are seeking a detail-oriented and experienced Quantity Surveyor to join our dynamic team. The ideal candidate will have a proven track record in measurement, take-offs, and preparation of Bills of Quantities, along with proficiency in CostX software.

What you'll do

  • Perform accurate measurements and take-offs from drawings and specifications.
  • Prepare and update comprehensive Bills of Quantities (BOQs).
  • Develop cost plans, estimates, and tender documentation.
  • Monitor project costs and assess variations.
  • Ensure compliance with project requirements and security protocols.
  • Utilize CostX for digital measurement and cost reporting.
  • Collaborate with clients, contractors, and stakeholders.

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.
