• Build strong client relationships while learning directly from senior colleagues
• Contribute to a growing, dynamic consultancy with space to make your mark

What You'll Bring

• 4+ years' experience in building surveying, ideally consultancy‑side
• Newly MRICS or close to qualifying
• Strong technical knowledge and client‑facing confidence
• Proactive, personable, and organised – someone who fits into a close‑knit, sociable team

Why This Role?

• Up to £65k base (DOE) + structured bonus scheme
• 25 days' holiday + Christmas closure
• Funded CPD, training, and networking
• Free on‑site gym membership
• Standard pension
• Hybrid working – typically office Tues/Thurs, WFH/site other days
• Clear progression pathway towards Associate
