  • Administering NEC contracts, including early warnings, compensation events and change management processes.
  • Assessing contractor applications, valuations and final accounts.
  • Providing commercial and contractual advice to clients and project teams.
  • Supporting procurement activities, tender evaluations and contract awards.
  • Managing commercial risks and identifying opportunities to improve project performance.
  • Building and maintaining strong relationships with clients, contractors and key stakeholders.

About You

  • Degree qualified in Quantity Surveying, Commercial Management or a related discipline.
  • Proven experience as a Quantity Surveyor or Senior Quantity Surveyor within infrastructure, transportation, aviation or construction projects.
  • Strong NEC contract administration experience is essential.
  • Demonstrable experience managing commercial risk, change control, contractor valuations and final accounts.
  • Excellent commercial awareness and stakeholder management skills.
  • Experience working within multidisciplinary project environments.
  • MRICS, or working towards chartership, is desirable.

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.
