With an impressive pipeline of projects secured across multiple sectors, this is an excellent opportunity for a commercially minded professional looking to develop their career within a forward-thinking consultancy. You'll play a key role in delivering projects from inception through to completion, working closely with clients, contractors, and colleagues across a diverse portfolio of developments throughout Wales and beyond.

What You'll Be Doing:

• Managing cost consultancy services across all stages of the project lifecycle
• Preparing detailed cost plans, budgets, estimates, and feasibility reports
• Producing tender documentation and managing procurement processes
• Undertaking valuations, cost reporting, and change control management
• Administering contracts and advising clients on commercial matters
• Attending client meetings and building strong stakeholder relationships
• Supporting and mentoring junior team members where appropriate
• Contributing to the successful delivery of a varied portfolio of projects

Who We'd Love to Hear From:

• Degree qualified in Quantity Surveying or a related discipline
• Previous consultancy/private practice Quantity Surveying experience
• Experience delivering projects across a range of sectors desirable
• Strong commercial awareness and client-facing skills
• Working towards MRICS status or already chartered (preferred but not essential)
• Confident communicator with a proactive and professional approach
• Ability to work independently while contributing positively to a collaborative team environment

Why This Role Stands Out:

• Join a successful and expanding consultancy with an excellent reputation
• Work on a varied and exciting mix of projects across multiple sectors
• Clear opportunities for career progression and professional development
• Supportive team environment with direct exposure to clients and key decision-makers
• Competitive salary of £40,000 - £50,000 DOE
• Be part of a business that continues to invest in its people and future growth

If you're an ambitious Quantity Surveyor looking to take the next step in your career with a thriving consultancy, we'd love to hear from you.
