Job description

Overview

Intermediate or Senior Quantity Surveyor – London. Posted: 09/01/2026. £75K- £95K / Year. V-60027-1. Prime Residential & Heritage | West London.

Join a growing, design-led contractor operating in the super-prime, bespoke residential and heritage refurbishment market across London. This company work on one-off, architect-led, technically complex homes — from listed buildings and conservation-area refurbishments to basements, structural alterations, and full townhouse transformations. This is not volume housing or process-driven production work — this is detail-led, hands-on construction at the premium end. They’re actively winning work, tendering heavily, and moving into a new office as the business scales.

The Role

• Take full commercial ownership of bespoke residential & heritage refurbishment projects
• Manage procurement of specialist subcontract packages (basements, structural, heritage trades, finishes)
• Run valuations, variations, CVRs, cost reporting & forecasting
• Work closely with Directors, Consultants & Site Teams on design-led schemes
• Support with tendering and early-stage cost planning

What they’re looking for

• Intermediate or Senior QS
• Background in super-prime or bespoke schemes not essential
• Would suit someone who has been involved in heavy refurb or residential projects
• Someone who enjoys complex problem-solving — not rigid corporate process
• Loyal, adaptable, commercially sharp, and delivery-focused
• Comfortable in a smaller, fast-moving business with real responsibility

The Company

They are a super-prime residential & heritage refurbishment contractor, delivering bespoke, design-led projects across London.

Their work typically includes:

• Listed & period buildings
• Basement excavations
• Full townhouse refurbishments
• Structural reconfigurations
• High-end bespoke interiors & finishes

This is craftsmanship-led construction — not volume or repetitive work.
