Job description

We are working on behalf of one of the UK's leading infrastructure contractors, renowned for delivering major projects across the water, power and rail sectors.

Following the award of a significant five-year framework to deliver clean and wastewater infrastructure across North Wales, our client is looking to strengthen its commercial team with the appointment of a Quantity Surveyor. This is an excellent opportunity to join a well-established business with a strong pipeline of secured work, offering long-term career development within a supportive and experienced commercial team. Reporting to the Senior Quantity Surveyors, you will play a key role in the commercial management of a portfolio of civil engineering projects, typically valued between 3 million and 8 million. You'll gain exposure to all aspects of project delivery, taking increasing responsibility for the commercial and contractual management of schemes from procurement through to final account.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Assisting with the commercial management of multiple projects throughout the project lifecycle.
• Supporting the administration of NEC contracts, including compensation events, early warnings and contractual notices.
• Preparing cost reports, forecasts, valuations and monthly CVRs.
• Procuring and managing subcontract packages, including payments and variations.
• Assisting with the preparation and submission of applications for payment.
• Monitoring project costs, identifying commercial risks and supporting value engineering initiatives.
• Helping to negotiate subcontractor accounts and contribute to the agreement of final accounts.
• Working closely with site teams, project managers and clients to ensure projects are delivered commercially and contractually in line with business objectives.
• Maintaining accurate commercial records and supporting the wider commercial team with reporting requirements.

The successful candidate will have previous experience in a Quantity Surveying role within civil engineering, utilities or infrastructure and will have a good understanding of commercial processes and contract administration. Experience working under NEC forms of contract would be highly desirable, although candidates with exposure to other standard forms of contract who are keen to develop their NEC knowledge will also be considered.

This role would suit an ambitious Quantity Surveyor looking to broaden their experience on a major long-term framework, working alongside experienced commercial professionals within a business that actively supports career progression and professional development.

In return, you'll join a financially robust contractor offering a competitive salary, an attractive benefits package, structured career progression, and the opportunity to contribute to the delivery of critical infrastructure projects that will benefit communities across North Wales for years to come
