- Attending client and site meetings, collaborating with project teams, and maintaining strong stakeholder relationships.
- Contributing to final account preparation and resolution of commercial queries.
- This is a client-facing, hands-on role offering exposure to a broad range of work, including high-rise remedial projects and large housing portfolio upgrades.
- We are looking for a commercially minded, collaborative individual with a strong understanding of construction processes and the confidence to take ownership of your projects.
- Degree (or equivalent) in Quantity Surveying or related field.
- Knowledge of standard forms of contract (JCT/NEC) and construction methodology.
- Strong analytical, negotiation, and communication skills.
- Proficiency with Microsoft Excel and commercial management tools.
- Highly organised, detail-oriented, and able to work independently.
- A team player with a positive, solutions-focused attitude and relevant driving licence.
This is a fantastic opportunity to join a reputable contractor that values collaboration, safety, and quality — and to develop your career with the support of an experienced and friendly team.
