Building Surveyor

Location - Liverpool

Salary/Package - Competitive Circa £50,000 + Excellent Benefits Package

About the Company

Our client is an established building and project consultancy providing professional advice across building surveying, property and construction.

With a strong focus on practical, commercially minded advice, the business works across a varied portfolio of residential, commercial and mixed-use properties. The Liverpool team is growing and is looking to appoint a Building Surveyor who is keen to develop their technical expertise, take increasing ownership of instructions and build a long-term career within a supportive consultancy environment.

The Role

As a Building Surveyor, you will work across a varied mix of professional building surveying and project instructions, gaining exposure to everything from inspections and defect diagnosis through to refurbishment, remedial works and project delivery.

You will be involved in carrying out surveys and site inspections, preparing professional reports and specifications, advising clients on defects and maintenance requirements, and supporting projects through to completion.

The role will also provide exposure to façade and cladding work, dilapidations, schedules of condition and landlord and tenant matters, alongside a broader range of building surveying services.

Working closely with experienced surveyors and Directors, you will have the opportunity to take on greater responsibility as your experience develops, while continuing to build your professional experience and progress towards RICS chartership where applicable.

The role is based from the Liverpool office, with some hybrid working available and a mixture of office, site and home working. The majority of projects will be across the North West, with occasional travel further afield.
