Our client is renowned as a market leader in the provision of innovative and bespoke integrated systems and offering a range of highest quality services that encompass Project Management and Implementation, Consultancy and Software Development to blue chip clients worldwide. As a result of continued success and an ongoing planned programme of strategic growth, they are now seeking to recruit an experienced Quantity Surveyor to complement their established and successful Supply Chain team.

With an excellent working knowledge of NEC Contracts, as Quantity Surveyor you will be responsible for:

1. Reviewing and negotiating the terms of new client contracts.
2. Managing and administering existing contracts.
3. Managing and implementing contractual changes using EWN and Compensation event processes.
4. Managing and issuing quotes for instructions.
5. Creating and managing client payment applications.

Skilled in supply-chain contract management, you will draft and negotiate subcontracts and undertake associated administration including change management to mitigate risks. You will collaborate closely with project teams to resolve any commercial issues that may arise and support decision-making processes where applicable, providing guidance on contract interpretation and application whilst ensuring compliance with NEC principles.

Reporting to the Financial Controller and working across all projects within the business, you will possess excellent attention to detail and be both highly organised and self-motivated to help achieve successful delivery of varied projects within the infrastructure industry. You should be able to develop relationships at all levels both internally and externally.

To be considered for this exceptional Quantity Surveyor opportunity, it is envisaged that the successful candidate will have attained an appropriate degree in Quantity Surveying or be able to demonstrate at least 4 years equivalent experience gained within an engineering and technical environment. Membership of a relevant professional body will be distinctly advantageous.

Essentially, you will demonstrate extensive knowledge of the NEC suite of contracts (NEC3 & NEC4) with a good track record of their application in infrastructure or technology projects, and sound working knowledge of construction and contract law as well as various forms of Conditions of Contract (mainly NEC but sometimes other contracts e.g. JCT, etc.).

With excellent IT skills (proficiency in the MS suite of packages including Excel and Word is essential) and strong client and supplier communication and negotiation skills, you will be a strong team player and demonstrate the flexibility and adaptability required to juggle a range of different tasks with a commitment to meet schedules and deadlines.
