Senior Quantity Surveyor - The Company

Our client is a successful, well-established residential developer with an excellent reputation for delivering quality new build homes across the South West.

Unlike many volume housebuilders, they focus on well-designed developments, typically delivering 3, 4 and 5-bedroom homes alongside occasional apartment schemes. Their projects combine private sale and affordable housing, with an emphasis on quality rather than volume.

Senior Quantity Surveyor - The Person
