Location: Maidstone

Step into a role where you’ll cover the full spectrum of building surveying, with structured APC support and exposure across multiple sectors.

This Maidstone-based consultancy works on commercial, residential, and industrial projects throughout London and the South East. You won’t be boxed into one area — instead, you’ll gain wide-ranging experience across surveys, projects, and professional instructions.

What you’ll do:

• Deliver building surveys, inspections, condition reports, and defect analysis
• Support on contract admin, dilapidations, and party wall matters
• Contribute to project delivery from spec through to completion
• Build confidence managing programmes, budgets, and quality
• Rotate across different project types and sectors with senior guidance

What you’ll need:

• RICS-accredited degree and ideally enrolled on the APC pathway
• Some relevant experience (placement year, graduate role, or similar)
• Organised, motivated, and client-friendly
• Clear communication and solid report writing skills

What’s on offer:

• Competitive, negotiable salary with uplift post-APC
• APC fees and structured training fully covered
• Discretionary bonus
• 22 days holiday + your birthday off
• Travel allowance and expenses
• Death in service benefit
• Hybrid working with regular London site visits

This is a role where you’ll build real breadth as a Building Surveyor, not just tick a few boxes on the way to qualification.
