Are you an ambitious individual looking to use your experience and qualifications to progress to the next level? If so we have an exciting opportunity for a Quantity Surveyor to gain further experience and development on a major programme of capital investment.

YTL Construction UK is responsible for designing and building the assets that enable Wessex Water to deliver services. These include water recycling and treatment centres, pumping stations, reservoirs, and all supporting infrastructure.

We are currently commencing a five year programme of capital investment, which is generating a significant increase in turnover. To deliver this major programme of work, YTL Construction UK uses its own in-house Civil, Mechanical and Electrical contractors as well as the national supply chain.

What you'll do

As a key part of your role, you will be expected to operate to financial deadlines as well as react to the demands of construction delivery to ensure best value.

You'll join the commercial team, reporting directly to the Managing Quantity Surveyor or Commercial Manager. The roles are based across the Wessex Water delivery areas, which include the major population centres of Bristol, Bath, Yeovil, Poole and Taunton. You will be based at various sites or in office hubs across the region.

The role involves major projects, and your duties will involve managing pre and post-contract requirements, ranging in value up to a maximum of circa £30m. You will manage the contract payment process across a number of projects, in addition to carrying out up to date and accurate cost value forecasting and reporting.

As part of this, you will be required to report contract changes, opportunities, and risks. To assist, you will be part of a team and work closely with project managers, designers, engineers and estimators, as well as attending regular financial meetings with senior team members, as required.

What you'll need

For this role, you'll ideally have:

• quantity surveying experience in the construction industry, preferably with the use of the NEC Suite of Contracts
• completed a degree in quantity surveying or a similar qualification
• membership of the RICS/ICES is also desirable but not essential
• experience with change and risk management, as well as tender and final account negotiation
• have good people skills, including leadership skills and the ability to form professional relationships with others
• good computer skills and a sound knowledge of health and safety related to the role.

As this position will require travel between YTL offices and construction sites, a full UK driving licence is required.

What you'll receive

• A combined pension contribution of up to 20%.
• Career progression and professional development opportunities.
• 25 days' holiday rising to 28 with length of service.
• The opportunity to buy up to ten days' holiday and sell up to five every year.
• A healthcare package that allows you to claim back healthcare costs.
• Life assurance of up to eight times your salary.
• A new electric car in exchange for part of your gross salary, subject to conditions.
• Cashback and discounts from more than 3,000 retailers.
• One paid volunteering day each year.
• Enhanced family leave and pay arrangements.
• An interactive health and wellbeing platform.
• Support from mental health first aiders.
• A £1,000 referral fee if you recommend someone to work for us.
