Job Description

Your new company 
This well-established South East London contractor has been delivering refurbishment, fit-out and renovation projects for more than 50 years. Working across both public and private sectors, they have built a strong reputation for quality delivery within housing, education, healthcare, heritage, commercial and public buildings.
Their projects are varied, ranging from smaller specialist refurbishments through to regeneration and remodelling schemes, often incorporating new-build elements. Typical project values range from £50k to £5m, with a healthy pipeline of work secured through repeat business, long-standing client relationships and public sector frameworks.
With a stable management team and a strong order book, they continue to grow whilst maintaining the collaborative culture of a successful regional contractor, hence the need to strengthen the commercial team.

Your new role 
Reporting directly to the Commercial Director, you'll take responsibility for the commercial management of a range of commercial refurbishment & new build projects across the housing, education, healthcare & hospitality sectors.
The role will involve overseeing procurement, subcontractor management, valuations, variations, cost reporting and final accounts, ensuring projects are commercially controlled from start to finish. You'll also have the opportunity to support the estimating function when required, assisting with tenders and pricing new opportunities.

Projects will typically range between £500k and £5m, so you'll need to be confident working independently while building strong relationships with both operational teams and clients.

What you'll need to succeed 
You'll already be working as a Quantity Surveyor or Senior Quantity Surveyor within a main contracting environment and will be comfortable taking ownership of projects commercially.
Ideally, you'll have experience delivering refurbishment or fit-out schemes and be confident producing CVRs, managing costs, subcontractor accounts and final accounts. Previous estimating experience would be advantageous, although it isn't essential.

Most importantly, you'll be commercially astute, organised and able to build positive working relationships across the business.

Competitive salaryCar allowance / travel allowance
