Sector: Specialist Construction
Salary: Up to £50,000 + Package
The Opportunity
A leading specialist contractor is looking to appoint Site Managers to deliver technically focused projects across the North West, North East, Scottish Borders and Scotland. You will work on a varied portfolio that includes cold-storage facilities, cleanrooms, fire-rated wall systems, and specialist refurbishment projects. Each scheme brings different technical and logistical challenges, making this an excellent opportunity for a Site Manager who enjoys variety and wants to build experience within specialist construction.
Role Overview
You will take responsibility for the day-to-day management of your project, ensuring works are delivered safely, on programme, and to the required quality standard. You will coordinate subcontractors, labour, deliveries, and site logistics while keeping communication clear between the site team, Project Manager, and client.
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.

About You
