£70k–£80 + package - Hertfordshire / North London
Sole contractor | Long-term framework
This is a fantastic opportunity for an experienced QS to take commercial control of a high-value, long-term council framework. The contractor is the exclusive delivery partner on this contract — with £2–3 million of annual works across the Borough and no competition.
The Company
Our client is one of the fastest-growing social housing contractors in the UK, specialising in residential and education refurbishment. They’ve secured a long-term framework with a major London council and are now looking for a Quantity Surveyor to take full commercial responsibility for this workstream.

Individual projects will range from £10k up to £500k and include a mix of externals, roofing, structural and general fabric repairs.
The Role
As Quantity Surveyor, you’ll manage all commercial aspects of the framework, working closely with the client, operations team, and supply chain.
