Quantity Surveyor Construction

My client is a friendly, privately owned main contractor that has been established for over 15 years. Based just outside Bournemouth, they are currently turning over around £17 million and are entering an exciting period of growth.

They are now looking to appoint an ambitious Quantity Surveyor who is looking for more than simply managing projects and final accounts — this is an opportunity to become an important part of the company's future commercial structure.

The existing Senior Surveyor is due to progress into a Commercial Manager position, with the successful candidate potentially taking responsibility for overseeing and mentoring an Assistant Quantity Surveyor. As the company continues to grow, additional members of the Commercial team will report into you, providing a genuine route into a Commercial Management position.

The Role

You will be responsible for managing 2–3 Design & Build projects simultaneously, overseeing the commercial performance from pre-construction through to completion and final account.

The role will suit a Quantity Surveyor who:

Has 10+ years' experience working for a main contractor

Has strong experience across Design & Build projects

Is comfortable managing multiple projects simultaneously

Has excellent commercial and contractual awareness

Has a keen eye for detail and strong financial control

Is keen to take on additional responsibility and develop towards a Commercial Manager position

Enjoys working within a close-knit, privately owned business where they can have a genuine influence

What's on Offer?

This is a company that is able to offer a structured and realistic career path, with progression driven by company growth rather than simply waiting for senior positions to become available.

In addition to a generous salary, the company offers discretionary bonuses and a flexible package, along with the opportunity to play a key role in the continued development of the Commercial team.

If you're an experienced Quantity Surveyor looking for a role where you can progress into management, mentor others and grow alongside the business, this could be an excellent opportunity
