About Solomons Europe
We are a Chartered Quantity Surveying practice delivering NEC4 excellence across the UK’s most complex infrastructure, energy, and engineering programmes. For more than 25 years, we’ve provided commercial assurance, contract administration, and trusted project support grounded in collaboration and clarity.
Our ambition is bold: to become the UK’s No.1 NEC4 QS Consultancy — the partner clients turn to for certainty, innovation, and commercial leadership, and the workplace where professionals grow, lead, and make meaningful impact.
Our distinction lies in the combination of deep NEC4 expertise and a people‑first philosophy. Through models like Everything DiSC® and The Five Behaviours®, we help teams work better together and bring NEC4’s principles of trust, cooperation, and transparency to life on real projects.
Working closely with wider project teams is essential to our approach. Our Quantity Surveyors are embedded alongside in the delivery team, actively involved on site, and engaged in the details that drive successful outcomes. We’re looking for people who want to be present where decisions are made, taking ownership of contractual performance, commercial control, and risk management to drive delivery and project results.
If you’re looking for a company that recognises your achievements and invests in your future, you’ll find your place here. At Solomons, every career is a learning journey — supported, structured, and designed to help you deliver work that matters.
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.
