Site Engineer – Edinburgh

Are you local to Edinburgh? Looking for work in the Central Belt? We have an excellent opportunity for an experienced Site Engineer to join a well-established and busy civil engineering contractor on a 6 month infrastructure project in the Edinburgh area.

Working on a significant infrastructure package, you'll play a key role in the delivery of roads, drainage, surfacing and associated structures. The project forms part of a wider development and offers a varied workload, a strong site team and continuity of work through to Christmas, with potential for further opportunities thereafter.

The Role

  • Setting out for roads, drainage and infrastructure works
  • Checking levels and ensuring works are delivered to specification
  • Producing and maintaining accurate site records
  • Liaising with site management, subcontractors and operatives
  • Quality assurance and as-built information
  • Supporting the successful delivery of the project programme

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.
