Job description

Qualified Rural Surveyor - Somerset

Full-time or Part-time | Flexible Working

I'm working with an established, multi-disciplinary property consultancy with a strong presence across South Wales and the South West. They are looking to recruit an experienced Rural Surveyor to join their team in Somerset.

This is a particularly broad general practice role, offering the opportunity to work across a varied rural client base rather than becoming pigeonholed into one specialism. The successful candidate will handle a mixture of agency, valuation, landlord and tenant, utilities, planning and rural advisory work

The Role

• Farm, land and rural property sales
• Valuations
• Agricultural and commercial landlord & tenant matters
• Compensation and utilities work
• Rural planning and development
• Advice on rural support schemes and subsidy applications
• Machinery and collective sales
• Developing and maintaining strong relationships with rural clients

The position offers a good level of autonomy alongside the support of an established wider team. There is also scope to develop your career across different areas of rural professional work.

About You

Ideally, you will:

• Be MRICS and/or FAAV qualified, or have a comparable level of rural surveying experience
• Have at least two years' post-qualified experience
• Possess good general practice rural surveying knowledge
• Be commercially aware and comfortable dealing directly with clients
• Be organised, self-motivated and capable of managing your own workload
• Have strong communication and IT skills
• Hold a full UK driving licence and have access to your own vehicle

What's On Offer?

• Competitive salary, dependent on experience
• Team performance bonus
• Defined career development pathway
• 25 days' annual leave plus bank holidays
• Flexible working arrangements
• Full-time or part-time hours considered
• Life cover and employee assistance programme

This would suit a Rural Surveyor who enjoys variety, wants direct client contact and is looking for a long-term opportunity within an established practice.
