The company put relationships at the heart of everything that they do.

Typical roles and responsibilities include:

* Issuing and commercial management of sub-contract tender packages.
* Negotiating with suppliers and subcontractors.
* Reviewing of contract documents.
* Managing and maintaining relationships with an established list of supply chain sub-contractors.
* Attending internal and external commercial review meetings.
* Aiding with submission of client valuations and management of the variation account.
* Management of subcontract accounts from procurement to final account.
* Preparation and assistance with the evaluation and submission of claims for variation works.
About You
* Exposure in Highways would be highly advantageous
* Experience of, or clear readiness for, managing a team of QSs.
* Comfortable balancing hands-on commercial delivery on major schemes with oversight of a wider team and portfolio.
* Candidates currently operating as a Senior QS and ready to make the step up to Managing QS level are encouraged to apply.
