Quantity Surveyor

Description:

Are you a Quantity Surveyor with experience across Planned Maintenance, Social Housing, Property Services or Refurbishment

I'm working with a long-established contractor that has continued to grow significantly and has recently secured a number of new contracts.

They're now looking to add an experienced Quantity Surveyor to their commercial team, working closely with an experienced Senior QS and taking genuine ownership of their own workload.

What will you be working on

You'll be involved in a range of planned maintenance and refurbishment programmes across Social Housing, including:

Roofing

Windows & Doors

Kitchens & Bathrooms

Retrofit

Voids

General Planned Maintenance

You'll have genuine commercial responsibility for your contracts, working closely with the operational team from valuation through to final account.

What are they looking for

The key requirement is commercial experience within Planned Maintenance, Social Housing, Property Services or Refurbishment.

You'll ideally have:

Previous QS experience within Social Housing, Property Services or Planned Maintenance

Strong knowledge of, or experience working with, NHF Schedule of Rates

Experience managing commercial processes from valuation through to final account

Good understanding of cost and value management

A practical understanding of planned maintenance works, with the ability to measure and understand works as well as manage the commercial process

Experience across areas such as roofing, scaffolding, windows & doors, kitchens & bathrooms or refurbishment

A personable, collaborative approach and the ability to work effectively within a close-knit team

Why consider it

The business has grown significantly over recent years and is continuing to win new work. You'll be joining at an important stage of that growth, with the opportunity to take ownership of your contracts, develop your commercial experience and progress as the business continues to expand.

You'll work closely with the Senior QS and wider operational team, giving you exposure to both the commercial and delivery sides of the business. 

There is also a clear opportunity for the right person to progress through the commercial team over time.

If you're already working in Planned Maintenance, Social Housing, Property Services or Refurbishment and want a role where you can have genuine responsibility within a growing commercial team, I'd be happy to have a confidential conversation.

I can give you the full details over a quick call and you can decide whether it's something you'd like to explore.
