Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Alongside delivering strong commercial results, mentoring junior team members will be a central part of your role. You’ll help Quantity Surveyors, Assistants, Graduates and Trainees build their technical skills, commercial judgement and confidence.
Your Responsibilities
- Managing contract budgets, cost control, commercial risk and profitability.
- Leading cost value reconciliations (CVRs), work in progress, forecasting and cash flow reporting.
- Overseeing subcontractor procurement, valuations, payment applications, variations and final accounts.
- Leading client negotiations and protecting the business’s contractual position.
- Coaching junior colleagues through practical support and regular development conversations.
- Working with operational teams and business leaders to improve contract performance.
What You’ll Bring
You’ll have at least five years’ Quantity Surveying experience, with a track record of managing multiple contracts or high-volume workstreams.
