About the Role
Our Client have been appointed as a principal contractor on a major new build project in North West London and are now looking for 2 Senior Quantity Surveyors to join the major £400million project running until 2032, working alongside a team of 10 Surveyors (varying levels of experience).
As a Senior Quantity Surveyor on the scheme there are two positions available and both positions will need someone fully competent in understanding NEC forms of contract.
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.
