Job description

Job Description

Project Quantity Surveyor (MRICS)
Location: London
Sectors: Commercial, Residential, Education, Heritage, and more
Package: Competitive salary, high-quality projects, no nonsense

I'm working exclusively with one of the most respected names in the construction consultancy space - a firm that combines technical excellence with a refreshingly down-to-earth culture. They're growing steadily and selectively, and now looking for a Project Quantity Surveyor (MRICS) to join their London team.

This is not about box-ticking or headcount. They're only interested in people who are thoughtful, proactive, and serious about doing good work.

Why them?

• 
  Top-tier projects - Think design-led developments, sensitive heritage refurbishments, net-zero buildings, and complex urban schemes. Not volume for the sake of it - they choose their work carefully.




• 
  Credible leadership - This is a consultancy led by QSs, not spreadsheet managers. You'll be surrounded by people who genuinely understand delivery, and who still enjoy the job.




• 
  Professional respect - Clients see them as trusted advisors, not service providers. You'll be at the table, not just ticking off post-contract duties.




• 
  Culture - No inflated egos, no churn-and-burn. Just a calm, capable, ambitious team doing things properly.

The Role

You'll take the lead on key projects across London and the South-East, managing cost consultancy services from early feasibility through to final account. You'll be trusted with client-facing responsibilities and encouraged to shape how projects are delivered.

You'll work alongside architects, engineers, and developers who value intelligent input, not just risk management. It's a role for someone who wants to influence the conversation, not just keep score.

What you bring

• Chartered status (MRICS), or very close to it




• Experience delivering built environment projects in the UK - ideally a mix of sectors




• A calm, clear communicator who knows how to build trust




• The confidence to lead, but the humility to learn




• A genuine interest in the detail of how buildings are put together and how costs are managed smartly

What you get

• A role with real responsibility and visibility




• Exposure to projects that stretch your thinking, not just your workload




• A long-term growth path within a respected, stable consultancy




• Flexibility, autonomy, and trust




• A team that values quality over quantity - in both people and projects

If that sounds like your kind of place, get in touch me, Andreea Hudson. I'd be happy to talk through the opportunity in detail - no hard sell, just a proper conversation.
