Quantity Surveyor (Rail)

Location: South East
Rate: £(phone number removed)
Duration: Up to 12 months

Are you looking for a QS role with a difference? Working across multiple disciplines, managing a cross disciplinary project in a specialist sector from design through to delivery?

We're working with a large UK business to recruit a Quantity Surveyor to support a major programme of station redevelopment and asset investment across a busy rail network. This will cover a variety of disciplines from Civils to M&E.

They're looking for someone with strong pre-contract and estimating experience who can take outline designs and develop robust cost estimates that help shape business cases, budgets and procurement strategies before projects move into delivery.

If you've worked within rail infrastructure and enjoy the commercial planning side of projects rather than purely post-contract delivery, this is an excellent opportunity.

The Role:

Working within the Asset Commercial team, you'll provide commercial support across a portfolio of civils and M&E projects, working closely with engineers, designers and project managers to ensure projects are commercially viable from the outset.

Your responsibilities will include:

Preparing cost estimates from outline designs
Developing project budgets and supporting business cases
Providing commercial input during the pre-contract stage
Supporting procurement and tender activities
Reviewing contractor quotations and cost submissions
Cost forecasting and commercial reporting
Working across a range of civils and M&E asset projects
Supporting project teams through the commercial lifecycle where required
What We're Looking For:

Quantity Surveying experience within rail or infrastructure
Strong estimating and pre-contract commercial experience
Ability to interpret designs and produce accurate cost estimates
Experience across both Civils and M&E projects
Good understanding of NEC contracts
Strong commercial awareness and stakeholder management skills
What's on Offer:

Competitive Permanent Salary
Excellent benefits including enhanced pension, healthcare, travel allowances and flexible working.
Hybrid working (typically 2 days in the Central London office with travel to sites as required)
Opportunity to support a significant long-term redevelopment and asset investment programme
