The Opportunity
A fantastic opportunity has arisen for an Assistant Surveyor to join a growing specialist contractor delivering dry lining, SFS, and façade packages across a range of construction projects.
This role offers genuine ownership of project packages, allowing you to take responsibility for the commercial management of schemes from procurement through to final account. You will play a key role in cost control, commercial reporting, subcontractor management, and client engagement, helping to ensure projects are delivered profitably and successfully.
