£50k-£65k

This structural consultancy is part of a larger group of companies, including an architecture firm and construction and joinery firm, all housed together in one office near Brighton, with another office near Eastbourne (option to work out of either).
The company group has around 90 staff in total, with approximately 25 office based staff. The structural engineering team is small and looking to expand as they are so busy.
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.
