Are you a Chartered Quantity Surveyor looking for your next opportunity with a leading global consultancy? I'm currently working with a highly respected consultancy who are looking to appoint a Senior Quantity Surveyor to join their Southampton team. This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced QS to work across a diverse range of major projects while developing their career within a well-established and supportive business.

  • Preparing cost plans, estimates, and tender documentation
  • Managing procurement and tender processes
  • Undertaking valuations, variations, and final accounts
  • Supporting clients with commercial and contractual advice

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.
