☀️ Solar Project Manager | Cardiff | Up to £60,000 + Bonus + Company Vehicle

Are you an experienced Electrician, Solar Supervisor or Renewables Engineer ready to step into Project Management?

This could be your opportunity to take the next step.

We're working with a growing renewables business in Cardiff that is looking for a Solar Project Manager to take ownership of commercial and utility-scale renewable energy projects across Wales.

⚡ What you'll be working on

You'll oversee projects involving:

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.
