Social Value Opportunity

A leading multidisciplinary consultancy is looking to appoint a Social Value Consultant in one of their Northern offices.

This is a great opportunity for someone with experience across social value, sustainability, CSR or community engagement to take ownership of social value delivery across a varied portfolio of projects.

You’ll work closely with multidisciplinary project teams, clients and community partners to turn social value commitments into practical initiatives that deliver measurable, lasting benefits. The role will cover projects connected to offices across Newcastle, Manchester, Liverpool and Leeds, providing the opportunity to build a strong network across the North.

The role

  • Manage a portfolio of social value programmes across a range of projects and sectors.
  • Monitor programme performance, costs, risks and progress against agreed targets.
  • Identify opportunities to strengthen social value within projects and client work.
  • Develop and deliver initiatives that create positive economic, social and environmental outcomes.
  • Build relationships with clients, community groups, schools, charities, social enterprises and local businesses.
  • Collect, analyse and report social value data and outcomes.
  • Support project and bid teams with social value strategies and community plans.
  • Coordinate stakeholder engagement, visits, events and community programmes.
  • Work collaboratively with multidisciplinary teams to develop project-specific initiatives.
  • Produce case studies, communications and thought leadership content showcasing social value activity.
  • Help ensure projects deliver a meaningful and lasting legacy within the communities where they operate.

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.
