If you are a skilled Quantity Surveyor looking for a role that offers variety, career progression, and hands-on experience across both pre-construction and live project delivery, this is the perfect opportunity. 

 Due to continued growth, our client is seeking an ambitious Quantity Surveyor to join their dynamic team. This role is ideal for a Quantity Surveyor ready to step up from Assistant level or expand their experience across planned maintenance, complex remediation, and commercial refurbishment projects. 

 As a Quantity Surveyor in this role, you will manage project costs, prepare accurate estimates, and ensure value for money across a wide range of schemes. Our client is committed to supporting the professional growth of every Quantity Surveyor, offering a structured career path within a forward-thinking and resident-focused contractor environment. 

 The Role 

You’ll provide key commercial support across the full project lifecycle, working closely with the Managing QS to ensure projects are delivered profitably, to a high standard, and in line with contractual obligations.
Responsibilities: 

Assisting with cost estimates, tender submissions, and BoQ pricing.
Managing subcontract procurement and enquiries for competitive pricing.
Preparing and submitting monthly valuations, variations, and cost forecasts.
Administering contracts and managing subcontractor accounts.
Supporting commercial reporting, including CVRs and cost-to-complete forecasts.
Attending client and site meetings, collaborating with project teams, and maintaining strong stakeholder relationships.
Contributing to final account preparation and resolution of commercial queries.
This is a client-facing, hands-on role offering exposure to a broad range of work, including high-rise remedial projects and large housing portfolio upgrades.
About You 

We are looking for a commercially minded, collaborative individual with a strong understanding of construction processes and the confidence to take ownership of your projects.
Essential skills and experience: 

Degree (or equivalent) in Quantity Surveying or related field.
Knowledge of standard forms of contract (JCT/NEC) and construction methodology.
Strong analytical, negotiation, and communication skills.
Proficiency with Microsoft Excel and commercial management tools.
Highly organised, detail-oriented, and able to work independently.
A team player with a positive, solutions-focused attitude and relevant driving licence.
Why Apply? 

 This is a fantastic opportunity to join a reputable contractor that values collaboration, safety, and quality — and to develop your career with the support of an experienced and friendly team. You’ll enjoy a varied workload, autonomy, and the chance to make a real impact on meaningful projects across the region. PL1 2LD.
