Commercial control of a new operation from its first contract, and that first contract is a £350 million healthcare scheme. Commercially, MEP is its own discipline. Valuations turn on installed services rather than visible progress, variations arrive through design change as often as through instruction, and the subcontract base is specialist. Carrying that on a scheme of this size, with an established contractor's balance sheet and supply chain behind you, is a different proposition from doing it on a project that is one of forty on a spreadsheet. This is a permanent role in Trafford Park, £60,000 to £75,000 depending on experience, plus a full benefits package. About the Business A new operation inside an established business is a particular kind of opportunity. The Trafford Park office is being built now, so the processes, the standards and the working relationships are still being set. What sits behind it is already there: the balance sheet, the supply chain and decades of delivered MEP projects. That combination is rare. Most people get the ground-floor role or the established backing, not both. Our client is a long-established, family-owned MEP engineering contractor covering mechanical, electrical and public health, with over 150 directly employed staff and a subcontractor base of around 300. They have offices across Ireland and deliver projects throughout Ireland and Great Britain, through major projects, facilities management and specialist projects divisions, across commercial, education, healthcare, heritage, hospitality and leisure, life sciences and residential sectors. The new Trafford Park operation is being established now rather than already running, and opens on a £350 million healthcare scheme in Manchester with further projects already pencilled into the pipeline. Family ownership shows up in how decisions get made. There is no quarterly reporting cycle dictating what gets committed to, which tends to mean longer views on people and on markets. An expansion into Great Britain is exactly the sort of commitment that needs a long view to survive its first two years. What You'll Be Doing Taking commercial ownership of the initial £350 million healthcare project, and of the schemes that follow it Attending pre-contract meetings, liaising across the professional team and making sure agreed actions are closed out Reviewing and negotiating contracts with main contractors and clients Negotiating with subcontractors and suppliers to secure competitive pricing and favourable terms Administering construction contracts in line with agreed terms, including running the payment process Measuring and valuing completed work accurately against contract specifications and drawings Preparing regular cost reports and financial statements, tracking progress and flagging budget deviation before it becomes a problem Identifying and assessing financial risk on projects, and developing strategies to mitigate it Keeping clients properly informed on cost, progress and potential change Working alongside project managers, engineers and support functions to keep delivery and commercial aligned What We're Looking For Five years or more post-graduate experience in a quantity surveying role within construction Comfortable working independently as well as within a team, in a fast-moving environment Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with sound commercial judgement Excellent written and verbal communication, credible with clients and main contractors Strong time management and organisation across multiple concurrent projects Clean UK driving licence An M&E or MEP commercial background is a strong advantage. Occasional travel to the business's other offices and to sites elsewhere in GB should be expected, though the role is based in Trafford Park. What's on Offer £60,000 - £75,000 depending on experience New operation (Trafford Park, from the start) Flexi-time (Flexible working patterns) Commercial ownership from the first contract the office takes on Structured training, both in house and externally delivered Private healthcare after six months, alongside a health cash plan and pension A business at the start of its GB expansion, where early contributions carry further than they would in an established office Apply Raven Search Building & Construction 16 Jobs Similar M&E Quantity Surveyor Jobs Popular with Other Job Seekers Quantity Surveyor FOSTER & MAY LIMITED City Centre, Manchester (M2), M60 2DS £45000 - £550000 per annum 3 weeks ago Estimator Building Careers UK Ltd Manchester (M1), M1 £45000 - £65000 per annum + plus package 2 weeks ago Quantity Surveyor Lester Lloyd Limited Stockport (SK3) From £57,000 to £70,000 per annum Car allowance, Pension, Healthcare, 2 weeks ago Quantity Surveyor - fit out and refurbishment MCR Property Group Manchester (M12) £45000 - £55000 Per Annum 1 week ago Quantity Surveyor / Estimator Building Careers UK Ltd Altrincham (WA14), WA14 £55000 - £65000 per annum + plus package 2 weeks ago Estimator Morson Edge Manchester, Greater Manchester, M32 0RS £70k - 80k per year 1 week ago Senior Quantity Surveyor Building Careers UK Ltd Manchester (M1), M1 £65000 - £75000 per annum 3 weeks ago Senior Quantity Surveyor FOSTER & MAY LIMITED City Centre, Manchester (M2), M2 3GX £65000 - £75000 per annum 4 days ago Quantity Surveyor Lester Lloyd Limited Bury (BL9) From £45,000 to £56,000 per annum Car allowance, Pension, Healthcare, 2 weeks ago Senior Estimator Building Careers UK Ltd Manchester (M1), M1 Up to £65000 per annum + plus package 4 weeks ago M&E Quantity Surveyor jobs M&E Quantity Surveyor jobs in Manchester Construction jobs Construction jobs in Manchester Quantity Surveying jobs Quantity Surveying jobs in Manchester Jobs in Manchester Operations Manager jobs Manager jobs Moj jobs Management jobs Adm jobs Marketing Manager jobs Cmms jobs Mechanical Manager jobs Wm jobs Mcdonalds jobs Customer Service Manager jobs M&E Manager jobs Cmm jobs MI Manager jobs MET Technician jobs Mps jobs Get hired.
