Are you an experienced Chartered Structural Engineer who would be keen for the challenge of working on high security buildings projects?
60 strong specialist multi-disciplinary design consultancy are needing to grow their team due to so many projects. They are a highly accredited award-winning firm.

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.

For this reason you will need to hold a British passport and be eligible for security clearance. If you already have experience in this type of work and SC in place, this would be very beneficial.
The role will include taking responsibility for the structural side of the projects, liaison with external and internal departments, hands-on design and mentoring the junior engineers.
The role could either be based from their Portsmouth or Monmouth offices.
Excellent benefits in addition to base salary.
