Job description

Beach Baker is proud to partner with a national property consultancy to recruit a senior level Building Surveyor for their Bristol office. This strategic hire supports the company's continued expansion - not a replacement - offering the chance to play a pivotal role in its growth journey.

Why Join

• Reputation: Strong name in the market.
• Supportive, medium-sized practice: Join a collaborative environment where quality service takes priority over fee targets.
• Diverse client base: Work with London funds, asset management companies, high-end residential, hotels, and private schools. The business avoids heavy reliance on public sector work.
• Career autonomy: Whether you're a generalist or want to develop a specialist niche, the company will support your career aspirations.
• Work-life balance: Enjoy a non-corporate atmosphere, flexible WFH options, and no timesheets.

The Role

• Engage with a wide range of commercial clients.
• Manage a balanced workload across professional surveys, project management, and dilapidations.
• Service national portfolio clients with limited travel - most work is within one hour of Bristol.

What's on Offer

• Strong financial stability with consistent fee pipelines and healthy cash reserves.
• Opportunity to work alongside industry-leading professionals across eight UK offices.
• A business where your ideas, specialisms, and contributions are genuinely valued.

Who We're Looking For

• Established Director/Partner, or Associate Director looking to take their next career step.
• Proven track record of client relationship development and fee generation.
• Strong local market knowledge in the South West - although candidates looking to relocate will also be considered.
