Job description

Quantity Surveyor / Senior Quantity Surveyor

North West

The North West market is busy. Good Quantity Surveyors are not.

I’m currently speaking with several contractors across the Manchester to Liverpool corridor looking to strengthen their commercial teams due to project wins and continued growth across refurbishment, social housing and public sector works.

These businesses are looking for commercially strong QSs who are comfortable managing projects properly — not just pushing paperwork around.

Typical responsibilities include:

• CVRs & commercial reporting
• Variations & final accounts
• Procurement of subcontract packages
• Client-facing commercial management
• Cost control across live projects
• NEC and/or JCT contracts

Projects typically range from £500k to £15m across refurbishment, planned maintenance, fit-out and regional construction works.

The opportunities available vary from growing regional contractors through to more established businesses with secured pipelines of work across the North West.

Ideal background:

• Contractor-side Quantity Surveying experience
• Comfortable running projects commercially
• Experience within refurbishment, housing, fit-out or public sector works advantageous

In return, companies are offering:

• Flexible working arrangements
• Genuine progression opportunities
• Supportive commercial teams
