Supporting the agreement of both upstream and downstream final accounts
Checking drawings and measurements to validate subcontractor or client claims

Reviewing contracts and letters of intent, highlighting any risks or issues
Working closely with the team to control costs and maximise value across projectsThis role will be office-based to begin with, giving you the chance to learn the business and systems properly, with flexibility and some hybrid working available longer term.

1-2 years' experience in a Quantity Surveying role (or a strong placement year)
Background in construction (main contractor or subcontractor both considered)
Good attitude and willingness to learn
Organised, reliable, and able to work as part of a team
Based within a commutable distance to the officeModular experience is a bonus, but not essential, a general construction background is just as relevant.

What's on Offer

£32,000 - £37,500 depending on experience
Strong training and development within a good commercial team
Exposure to a variety of projects across modular and retail
25 days holiday + bank holidays
Car allowance
