Your new company
Our client is a leading UK construction and development business with a strong reputation for delivering high-quality projects across a range of sectors. Due to a significant project win, they are seeking an experienced Senior Site Manager to join their team on a prestigious new-build golf resort development in St Andrews. This is a rare opportunity to play a key role on a landmark project that will create a luxury destination and showcase exceptional construction standards.
Your new role
As Senior Site Manager, you will take responsibility for the internal fit-out of six high-specification accommodation lodges, each valued at approximately £3.5m. Working closely with the Project Manager and wider site team, you will oversee the delivery of luxury finishes, coordinate subcontractors, manage programme requirements, and ensure the highest standards of health & safety and quality throughout the build process.
Upon completion of the lodges, you will transition into managing the fit-out of the resort's flagship halfway house, maintaining the same exacting standards expected on this prestigious development. This role offers the opportunity to manage a unique, high-profile project from fit-out through to handover while working with an established and highly regarded contractor.
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.
