Job Description

585 Technical Surveyor

Office / site-based

£38,000 - £52,000 + package

Permanent

Winsearch UK is proud to partner with a specialist contractor in the roofing, cladding and wider building envelope sector, who is looking to add a Technical Surveyor to their technical team.

This is a hands-on role sitting between site surveys, technical design, drawing coordination and material scheduling. It would suit someone with a roofing, cladding or envelope background who enjoys being out on site, but is also confident working with drawings, measurements, schedules and suppliers.

The role

As a Technical Surveyor, you'll carry out detailed roof and building envelope surveys across new build, refurbishment and re-roofing projects.

You'll then turn that site information into technical layouts, drawing briefs and material schedules, working closely with draughtspeople, site teams, manufacturers and suppliers to make sure projects are measured, drawn, ordered and delivered properly.

This role will be mixed between office and site based work - you'll be regularly visiting sites, working at height, taking measurements, recording details and helping resolve technical queries.

What you'll be doing

Carrying out measured surveys of roofs and external envelope areas
Producing accurate notes, sketches, dimensions and photographic records
Recording roof conditions, penetrations, upstands, drainage and fixing substrates
Turning survey information into technical layouts and system designs
Producing panel schedules, fixing patterns and material quantities
Identifying bespoke details and non-standard site conditions
Liaising with manufacturers on technical guidance, approvals and calculations
Briefing draughtspeople on drawings and detail requirements
Reviewing construction drawings before issue
Coordinating drawing approvals, comments and resubmissions
Producing material schedules for sheets, panels, flashings, fixings and associated components
Supporting procurement with supplier quotes and material orders
Providing technical support to site teams during installation
Maintaining survey records, drawing registers, schedules and project files
What they're looking for

Experience in a surveying, technical, design or coordination role within roofing, cladding or building envelope
Good understanding of commercial or industrial roof surveys
Knowledge of metal roofing or cladding systems
Experience with systems such as profiled sheeting, standing seam, secret-fix or composite panels
Ability to read and interpret architectural and structural drawings
Experience producing or coordinating construction drawings
Confident producing material schedules and quantities
Strong attention to detail and accuracy
Comfortable working at height
Good Excel and Microsoft Office skills
Full UK driving licence
Willingness to travel to sites across the UK
Useful experience

It would also be beneficial if you have experience with:

AutoCAD or drawing mark-ups
Built-up roof and wall cladding systems
Composite roof / wall cladding
Flat roofing or rainscreen cladding
U-values, condensation risk or acoustic requirements
Design and build contracts
PASMA or IPAF
The type of person who'll do well

This role will suit someone practical, accurate and technically minded.

You'll need to be confident going to site, taking ownership of surveys, spotting issues and bringing the right information back into the business. Just as importantly, you'll need to be organised and detail-focused, as mistakes in measurements, drawings or material schedules can have a direct impact on cost and programme.

What's in it for you

£38,000 - £52,000 salary depending on experience
Company car or car allowance
Fuel card
Company performance-related bonus
5% employer pension contribution
33 days annual leave including bank holidays
Phone and laptop
Professional membership support
CPD budget
Varied role across site surveys, technical design, drawings and procurement
If you're from a roofing, cladding, metal envelope or wider building envelope background and want a technical role with a strong mix of site and office work, get in touch with Winsearch UK for more information.
