Job Description
M&E Quantity Surveyor / Mechanical QS
We’re on the hunt for an experienced Mechanical Quantity Surveyor to join a high-performing project team in Oxfordshire. This isn’t your average QS role—you’ll be driving cost strategy on a complex, £50m+ project in the advanced manufacturing and life sciences sector.
The Role:
You’ll take the reins on end-to-end cost management—budgeting, forecasting, contract wrangling, and making sure everything adds up (literally). Working closely with the Regional Commercial Lead, you’ll steer mechanical package procurement, manage JCT D&B contracts, and be the calm voice in a sea of cost reports, risk registers, and change controls. As well as mentoring junior team members too—
What You’ll Be Doing:
* Cost Management – Cost plans, CVRs, forecasts. You’ll keep mechanical budgets on track and surprises to a minimum.
* Subcontractor Evaluation – Lead mechanical package procurement and squeeze value from every pound spent.
* Risk & Change Control – Maintain the risk register, handle project changes, and keep everyone honest.
* Contract Admin – NEC, JCT, or whatever acronym the client throws—review, negotiate, and manage.
* Supply Chain Management – Prequal, procure, and partner with local, reliable mechanical subcontractors.
* Collaboration – Work closely with project leads and clients to deliver smoothly and smartly.
You’ll excel in this role if you:
* Have a degree in Quantity Surveying or similar (extra credit for RICS/CIOB letters after your name)
* Know your way around JCT D&B and NEC contracts like the back of your hand
* Have solid mechanical services experience—you understand pipework, plantrooms, and pressure testing more than just on paper
* Enjoy mentoring and bringing others up with you
* Are fluent in Excel and can hold your own in SAP, COINS, ORACLE, CostX, Bluebeam, or PowerBI
You’ll work on cutting-edge projects with a team that’s smart, driven, and not afraid of a challenge. If you’re looking to grow your career, make a real impact, please apply now with a current CV

* Negotiable basic salary (£70k – £90k) depending on experience
