They're looking for someone bright, curious and enthusiastic - a surveyor who already has some hands-on experience and is keen to develop, learn and progress toward chartership with the right support around them.

The role

You'll work alongside experienced Building Surveyors across a broad mix of instructions, gaining exposure to both professional and project-led services. From day one, you'll be encouraged to get involved, ask questions and take on responsibility as your confidence grows.

What you'll be involved in

• Assisting on a range of building surveying instructions
• Supporting projects from early stages through to completion

• Strong communication and organisational skills

Development & support

• Full support toward your RICS APC
• Structured mentoring and hands-on training
• Clear progression as the Cambridge team continues to grow

Why join?

• Join a team at the start of its growth - not after it\'s established
• Learn directly from experienced professionals who invest in development
• A supportive, forward-thinking environment where your contribution matters
• Long-term career opportunity rather than just a stepping stone

If you\'re a Graduate/Assistant Building Surveyor looking for a role where you can grow with the business - not just within it
