Job description

Associate Building Surveyor

Your new company
Step into a key role within the Building Consultancy team and bring a bold, forward-thinking approach to a variety of professional and project-led surveying instructions. Based in London, this position offers exposure to high-profile clients across investor, lender, occupier, developer and public sector portfolios, with opportunities to travel throughout the UK, Europe and beyond.
Leverage around five years of post-qualified experience to take ownership of complex schemes-from briefing through to design, procurement and delivery-while providing technical due diligence and strategic consultancy support. Confidence in leading teams and managing clients will be essential in driving high-quality outcomes and exceeding expectations.
Join a dynamic, socially vibrant team that champions growth, collaboration and clear career progression. Work alongside experts across investment, planning, development, regeneration and property management as part of an integrated, multidisciplinary consultancy.
With over 1,350 professionals across 12 regional offices, this is a chance to thrive at one of the UK's largest property consultancies-committed to delivering innovative, results-driven solutions for clients across every sector.
Your new role
By joining the Building Consultancy Business Unit, you'll take on a varied and high-quality workload with a blue-chip client base.

With a balanced mix of professional and project work, your role will involve:• Administering contracts on projects both large and small
• Managing and monitoring project progress
• Carrying out building surveys across a wide range of property types
• Delivering technical due diligence for acquisitions and disposals
• Handling party wall matters from start to resolution
• Preparing and advising on planned maintenance schedules
You'll be working in a collaborative, high-performing team, with the opportunity to grow your expertise across all aspects of building surveying.
What you'll need to succeed

Expect to work across a broad range of commercial property types-including offices, industrial and retail-as well as high-value institutional residential schemes.
This role demands fluency in a multidisciplinary Chartered Surveying setting, backed by strong technical expertise and sharp commercial instincts.
To excel, you'll bring:

• A clear client-first mindset
• Drive and ambition, with the ability to support and grow those around you
• Leadership presence and a collaborative spirit
• Strong communication across all levels
• A strategic, commercially aware outlook
• Confidence in working across service lines and business units

You'll be expected to maintain and strengthen existing client relationships while proactively seeking new opportunities through networking and business development. A high standard of delivery is non-negotiable-be prepared to showcase your best work at interview to demonstrate your ability to advise at the top of the profession.
What you'll get in return
Flexible working options available.
