The Role

As a Quantity Surveyor, you'll be responsible for supporting the commercial delivery of a diverse portfolio of contracts, working closely with operational teams to ensure projects are delivered profitably while maintaining strong client relationships.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Supporting the commercial management of projects from contract award through to final account

About You

We're keen to speak with Quantity Surveyors who have experience working within highways, traffic management, utilities, infrastructure or the wider civil engineering sector.
