Job Description

The Role

Are you a commercially minded Quantity Surveyor looking to make a significant impact within a fast-paced sub-contracting environment?
Our client are a leading specialist sub-contractor based in Motherwell, known for delivering high-quality packages on some of Scotland's most prestigious construction projects. Due to a strong pipeline of work and sustained growth, they are looking for a driven, degree-qualified QS to join our commercial team.

This role offers the best of both worlds: the agility and influence of a sub-contractor, with the professional standards and project scale typically found in Tier 1 environments.

Commercial Management: Take full commercial ownership of multiple projects from inception to final account.
Contract Administration: Manage NEC/JCT/D&B contracts, ensuring all notices and variations are submitted accurately and on time.
Sub-contractor Management: Oversee the procurement and payment cycles for smaller trades and material suppliers.
Reporting: Prepare monthly CVRs (Cost Value Reconciliations) and provide accurate cash flow forecasts to the Commercial Manager.
Collaboration: Work closely with the Site Management teams to identify commercial risks and opportunities on-site.
The Ideal Candidate

We are looking for a professional who understands the pace of sub-contracting but possesses the rigour of a large-scale contractor background.

Education: Must hold a degree in Quantity Surveying or a related discipline.
Experience: A minimum of 5 years post-qualification experience (PQE) is essential.
Background: Proven track record working with either a large main contractor or a large-scale specialist sub-contractor.
Skills: Strong negotiation skills, a sharp eye for detail, and the ability to manage multiple priorities simultaneously.
Location: Ideally based within commuting distance of Motherwell.
Why Join?

•  Career Progression: We value internal growth and provide a clear pathway to Senior QS level.
•  Stability: A robust project pipeline extending well into 2026/27.
•  Local Focus: Head office based in Motherwell with projects primarily across the Central Belt.
•  Package: Competitive salary, car allowance, pension scheme, and a generous holiday entitlement.
