Job Description

We're looking for an Assistant Quantity Surveyor to join our commercial team on a major £80 million student accommodation scheme in Bristol. This is a fantastic opportunity for a graduate or early-career surveyor to gain hands-on experience on a large-scale, high-profile residential development, working alongside experienced QS professionals and a strong project team.

You'll be involved from an early stage in the build programme, giving you exposure to the full lifecycle of a major project — from procurement and subcontractor management through to final account.

Key Responsibilities

  * Assist with the preparation of interim valuations and cost reports

  * Support the measurement and pricing of works from drawings and specifications

  * Help prepare tender and subcontract documentation

  * Assist in the procurement of subcontractors and suppliers

  * Support the management of subcontractor accounts, including valuations, variations, and final accounts

  * Assist with cost value reconciliations (CVRs) and reporting

  * Help maintain accurate cost records and project documentation

  * Attend site visits and progress meetings to monitor works on the ground

  * Support senior surveyors with contract administration and correspondence

  * Assist with the preparation of monthly cost/value reports

What We're Looking For

  * A degree in Quantity Surveying, Commercial Management, or a related built environment discipline (or due to graduate)

  * A genuine interest in pursuing a career in quantity surveying within a contracting environment

  * Strong numeracy and analytical skills, with good attention to detail

  * Good communication skills, both written and verbal

  * Proficiency in Microsoft Excel; familiarity with measurement/cost software (e.g. CostX, Bluebeam) is a bonus but not essential

  * A proactive, willing-to-learn attitude and ability to work well within a team

  * A full UK driving licence is desirable, as some site travel may be required

  * Working towards (or interested in working towards) chartered status with the RICS or CIOB

What We Offer

  * Structured training and mentoring from experienced QS professionals

  * Support towards professional accreditation (RICS/CIOB) including study leave and course fees

  * Exposure to a major live construction project from day one

  * Competitive graduate salary plus benefits package

  * Genuine career progression opportunities within a growing commercial team
