  • Acting as Contract Administrator or Employer’s Agent to ensure smooth, compliant project delivery.
  • Monitoring on‑site progress, workmanship quality, and health & safety standards.
  • Providing technical advice on building pathology, maintenance strategies, repairs, and compliance matters.
  • Overseeing budgets and offering accurate cost advice and value‑engineering solutions.
  • Leading and coordinating multi‑disciplinary design and professional teams.
  • Managing change control, risk assessments, and quality assurance processes.
  • Maintaining strong communication with clients, stakeholders, and external consultants.
  • Ensuring all projects are delivered safely, efficiently, and to the highest technical standards.
What you bring as the successful Building Surveyor:
  • A degree in Building Surveying, Construction Management, or a related field.
  • Professional membership (MRICS/MCIOB), or working towards it, is a bonus.
  • Proven building surveying experience within the UK residential sector.
  • Solid technical knowledge across construction, refurbishment, and maintenance.
  • Understanding of property legislation and building regulations.
  • Excellent reporting, communication, and client‑facing skills.
  • The ability to juggle multiple projects and stay calm under pressure.
