We would love to hear from you if…
You are an experienced Quantity Surveyor with a strong background in utilities, civil, or mechanical engineering.
You should have experience managing high-volume, low-value works and a solid understanding of NEC contract schemes, along with experience in subcontractor management.
We are looking for someone who is enthusiastic, proactive, and a great problem solver, with excellent communication and relationship-building skills. Strong Microsoft Excel expertise is essential, including proficiency with formulas, pivot tables, and VLOOKUPs, alongside a keen eye for data integrity and financial analysis.
A degree in Quantity Surveying, or an HNC/HND in Civil or Mechanical Engineering with commercial management experience, would be highly desirable
