Job Description

Quantity Surveyor | Main Contractor | External Refurbishment | Essex | Permanent
 
I’m working with a growing main contractor who are looking to appoint a Quantity Surveyor following a significant increase in secured workload.
 
The business has grown turnover by 45%, effectively moving a year ahead of its growth plan, and now has a substantial long-term order book through established local authority and housing association frameworks.
 
This is an opportunity for an ambitious QS to join a close-knit commercial team where there is plenty of support, but also genuine scope to take ownership, gain recognition and progress as the business grows.
 
The Role

Managing approximately 2–5 live projects, depending on size
Projects ranging from smaller works through to £10m
Procurement and management of subcontract packages

Current Workload

Several c£3.5m external refurbishment projects
Significant secured framework workload across social housing
Long-term relationships with housing associations and local authorities 
What they're looking for

Quantity Surveyor with approximately 5–6 years' experience
External refurbishment experience is key
Roofing experience advantageous, but not essential
Experience working across social housing / planned works beneficial
Comfortable commercially managing multiple projects
Energetic and ambitious – someone looking to progress rather than simply maintain their current level 
The Business

Circa £30m turnover, following 45% growth
Long-term target to grow towards £60m turnover
Significant secured order book and established framework relationships
Structured commercial team including Commercial Manager, Senior QSs, Project QS, QSs and Trainee support
