Job description

Intermediate Building Surveyor - APC Support & Multidisciplinary Exposure

London / South-East

£30,000-£45,000

A forward-thinking, multidisciplinary property consultancy is seeking an Intermediate Building Surveyor to join their expanding team. This is an excellent opportunity for someone with 2-3 years' experience who wants real progression, broad project exposure and structured support through the APC. Without the pressure of needing to already be chartered.

You’ll be joining a team that brings together surveying, architecture, cost consultancy, building services and project management under one roof, giving you a genuine 360° understanding of how buildings are designed, maintained and improved. If you’re looking for variety, technical development and the chance to work on meaningful projects across the region, this is the role for you.

What’s your day-to-day looks like:

• Carry out condition surveys, defect analysis, feasibility assessments and technical inspections across education, residential, commercial and public-sector buildings.
• Produce clear, accurate technical reports, maintenance recommendations and refurbishment proposals.
• Support the delivery of refurbishment, alteration and lifecycle-focused projects alongside senior surveyors and project managers.
• Assist with contract administration, visiting sites, monitoring works and liaising directly with clients, contractors and internal discipline leads.
• Contribute to asset‑management advice, long‑term maintenance planning and general building consultancy tasks.
• Work closely with architects, designers, engineers and cost consultants within a collaborative in‑house setup.

What you’ll need to have:

• 2-3 years’ relevant experience within building surveying (consultancy or client-side).
• Working towards APC – you’ll be supported, but chartership is not required for this role.
• Strong technical grounding; able to identify defects, write reports and communicate effectively.
• Curious, proactive and comfortable working across a wide range of sectors and building types.
• Keen to develop both your technical expertise and your wider consultancy skillset.

In a nutshell:

• £30,000‑£45,000 salary, depending on experience.
• Structured APC support and regular exposure to senior technical leads.
• A genuinely collaborative environment built around transparency, sustainability and original problem-solving.
• The chance to work across all stages of the building lifecycle – from early surveys to design support, project delivery and post‑completion asset management.
• Varied work across education, residential, commercial and public‑sector clients, ensuring no two weeks look the same.

A role where your input matters, your development is taken seriously and progression is encouraged.
