  • Ensuring projects meet sustainability, accessibility, and community value objectives.

What we’re looking for:

  • A degree (or equivalent qualification) in a construction-related discipline such as construction management, quantity surveying, building surveying, or project management.
  • Experience working with or for public sector organisations, particularly local authorities, housing associations, or government bodies.
