Job Description

Senior / Managing Quantity Surveyor — Civils & Infrastructure
Step up to Managing QS level with a £1bn+ Contractor

The Company

A dynamic Main Contractor with a reputation for delivering high-quality projects for a long list of blue-chip clients. Their sterling reputation as a contractor has allowed them to branch out into numerous markets including Civil Engineering & Infrastructure, Residential, Commercial & Retail, with project sizes ranging from £20m–£100m.

The company put relationships at the heart of everything that they do. This is reflected in the fact that they have used many of the same sub-contractors since their early days as a contractor and also enjoy an incredibly high level of repeat business with clients they've built solid professional relationships with.

The Role

This role sits within the Civils & Infrastructure division, with a focus on highways schemes. It's a genuine step-up opportunity for a Senior QS ready to move beyond the day-to-day running of a single scheme and take on a Managing QS role with real scope: pricing the region's larger schemes, overseeing commercial reporting across a portfolio of smaller ones, and managing and mentoring a team of QSs at various levels.

If you've been carrying informal responsibility for guiding junior QSs already, or you're the person your team comes to when something needs sense-checking, this is the role that puts that under a formal title.

Typical responsibilities include:

  * Assisting with the pricing of some of the region's larger schemes

  * Managing the commercial reporting of other, smaller schemes across the region

  * Managing and mentoring a team of QSs at various levels of experience

  * Issuing and commercial management of sub-contract tender packages

  * Negotiating with suppliers and subcontractors

  * Reviewing of contract documents

  * Managing and maintaining relationships with an established list of supply chain sub-contractors

  * Attending internal and external commercial review meetings

  * Aiding with submission of client valuations and management of the variation account

  * Management of subcontract accounts from procurement to final account

  * Preparation and assistance with the evaluation and submission of claims for variation works

About You

  * You're currently operating as a Senior QS and feel ready — or are close to ready — to take on the oversight and people-management side of an MQS role

  * You're comfortable balancing hands-on commercial delivery on major schemes with oversight of a wider team and portfolio

  * You have experience of, or clear readiness for, managing a team of QSs

  * Exposure to Highways would be highly advantageous

Benefits

You will be given the opportunity to earn up to £90,000 per annum, plus package. Car or car allowance is included in their benefits package, alongside a competitive pension contribution, private healthcare, and an additional bonus scheme
