Job Description

Senior Quantity Surveyor | Be the Commercial Lead on a £45m Landmark Project

Some projects build your CV. Others define it.

A £5m package here. A £10m package there.

Then there are the projects where you're trusted to take the commercial lead on a flagship development that will become one of the region's most significant schemes.

I'm working with one of East Anglia's leading contractors, a business turning over more than £1 billion annually and delivering some of the most recognisable projects across the region.

They're now looking to appoint a Senior Quantity Surveyor to take a leading role on a £45 million education scheme in Ipswich.

This is a rare opportunity to join a contractor with an exceptional reputation, a huge pipeline of secured work, and a commitment to promoting from within.

The Opportunity

As Senior Quantity Surveyor, you'll be one of the key commercial leaders on the project, taking ownership of procurement, subcontract management, cost reporting, client liaison, variations, risk management and final account strategy.

You'll have the autonomy to run your area of the scheme while being supported by a highly experienced commercial and operational team.

More importantly, this isn't a "one project and done" opportunity.

The business has multiple live and upcoming schemes across East Anglia, meaning genuine long-term career security and future progression opportunities.

Why Surveyors Join This Contractor

  * Major projects without the London commute

  * Strong regional presence and repeat client base

  * Excellent staff retention

  * Consistent pipeline of secured work

  * Clear route to Managing Quantity Surveyor and beyond

  * High-quality projects across education, healthcare, commercial and public sectors

  * Commercial teams that are empowered rather than micromanaged

What They're Looking For

  * Senior Quantity Surveyor or experienced Quantity Surveyor ready to step up

  * Main contractor experience is essential

  * Strong procurement and package management experience

  * Comfortable leading commercial processes on major projects

  * Experience within education, healthcare, commercial or public sector projects would be advantageous

  * Ambitious, driven and looking for a long-term home rather than just the next job

Salary & Package

  * £75,000 - £85,000 basic salary

  * Attractive benefits package

  * Bonus potential

  * Pension

  * Car allowance or company vehicle

  * Ongoing professional development

The Bottom Line

If you're a Senior Quantity Surveyor looking for a project you'll be proud to talk about in five years' time, this is exactly the kind of opportunity that doesn't come around often.

A flagship £45 million scheme.

A £1 billion contractor.

A region packed with future work.

And a business where high performers build careers, not just complete projects.
