Technical Manager
Leeds
£65,000 - £75,000 plus package
I'm working with a privately owned developer that builds out its own schemes across the UK. Land, design, technical and construction all sit in-house, so the technical work here actually gets built rather than handed over the fence.
They want someone from an engineering background to pick sites up at consent and deliver them ready to build.
The role:
- Take sites from planning consent through to start on site
- Negotiate and secure Section 38, 278 and 104 agreements through to adoption
- Coordinate levels, drainage and external works design
- Appoint and manage civils, highways and geotech consultants
- Procure utilities, diversions and easements
- Technical due diligence on new acquisitions before exchange
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.
