Chartered Senior Town Planner | Manchester | £38k + Car Allowance

We’re currently working with a well established planning consultancy on an exciting opportunity for a Senior Town Planner to join their Manchester team.

The team is being spearheaded by a strong and experienced leader who is driving the continued growth of the Manchester office, making this an excellent time to join and play a key part in that expansion.

This is a great opportunity for an experienced planner who is looking for greater autonomy, a varied project portfolio and a strong team environment, with a clear route for progression.

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.
