• Carrying out surveys, inspections, and technical assessments
• Producing specifications, reports, and tender documentation
• Coordinating multidisciplinary teams and external consultants
• Supporting design, procurement, and construction stages
• Contributing to problem-solving on complex or underperforming projects

Requirements:

You’ll be someone who enjoys responsibility, communicates well with clients, and takes a proactive approach to delivering projects.

You’ll ideally bring:

• Around 3+ years' experience in Building Surveying
• Experience within a consultancy environment
• A mix of project and professional services exposure
• Knowledge across pre- and post-contract duties
• APC achieved or in progress
