Job description

TSA Quality Control are a specialist supplier of professional construction quality management resources including Clerk of Works and NEC Supervisor.

One of our clients, a leading Project Management and Cost Consultancy, are seeking to engage a Civils Clerk of Works to monitor the performance of the main contractor at a large commercial and industrial development in Bedfordshire.

A collaborative approach will be required to liaise with the main contractor and their sub-contracting fraternity to ensure that design and specifications are being met on the civils element of the project – namely:

• utilities and services
• groundworks
• enabling works
• 278 works
• landscaping

Photos and report will be prepared utilising a tablet PC and Field view software – knowledge and experience would be useful but not essential.

This opportunity would suit a Civils Clerk of Works but also potentially a technically minded individual from a contracting background such as a Setting Out Engineer who is interested in working on the consultancy side of major projects. Ideally we are looking for someone 5 days a week but a part time engagement is an option.

The rate would be £300 – £350 per day. IR35 determination will be conducted on a case-by-case basis.
