Job description

Are you looking for a hybrid role with an average of just two days a week in the office? Interested in joining an end client organisation with a £15bn+ investment pipeline over the next decade?

A major infrastructure sector client is expanding its commercial services team and is looking to appoint a Quantity Surveyor to each of its multi-million sub programmes. Each programme carries a £1bn investment allocation which will be delivered over the next five years.

Working directly for an end client offers many benefits, including:
  • More strategic, big picture involvement
  • Greater influence over project decisions, with opportunity to shape them for the long term
  • More predictable workload, better job security and a much better work life balance (a 37-hour week)
  • Clear career progression into leadership roles
  • Stronger focus on cost control and value, less on claims
  • Exposure to portfolio/programme level works
  • Closer relationships with senior stakeholders within the business
  • Broader range of professional skills development
As a Quantity Surveyor, you will support with the commercial assurance of all financial and contractual aspects of contracted works in relation to a portfolio of projects. You will develop skills across:
  • Procurement and contract strategy development and implementation
  • Development and implementation of key commercial controls
  • Cost assurance, pre and post contract
  • Process applications for payment from partners
  • Forecast assurance
  • Change control assurance
  • Contract administration assurance
  • Supply chain management and procurement support
To be successful it is thought that you will:
  • Be educated to HND or Degree standard in Quantity Surveying or Commercial Management, or a related degree
  • Hold sound knowledge of contract, be that JCT or NEC or similar
  • Ideally have experience of working across both development and delivery phases of projects, although this is a nice to have so don't worry if it's only one and not the other
On offer is a salary of between £45,000 - £55,000 per annum along with an annual bonus, a 12% employer pension contribution, annual holiday and other benefits
