Senior Quantity Surveyor

£60,000 - £65,000 + Car allowance + Bonus + Progression + Benefits Package

Chesterfield, Derbyshire

Overview

This is a rare opportunity for a Senior Quantity Surveyor with residential or groundworks experience to join an award-winning, privately owned developer in a key commercial position, with genuine progression to Commercial Manager and a long‑term route to Director.

This is a fantastic chance to join a quality regional housebuilder who are going through a phase of growth and plan to double turnover across the next 5 years. You will be part of a close knit team, have real opportunities for progression and work in a forward thinking environment.

This company is a highly reputable housebuilder who specialise in delivering high quality developments across the Midlands. Their developments can vary in size from singular, multi‑million pound plots up to 200 units, producing traditional build units. They are currently undergoing an exciting period of growth and have plans to double in size over the next 3 years. Therefore they are looking for an experienced Quantity Surveyor to join their team.

In this role, you will work on three to four construction projects at any given time, ensuring their successful delivery. Key responsibilities include valuing work produced by sub‑contractors, procurement, attending meetings and agreeing payments.

This is a fantastic opportunity for a Quantity Surveyor looking to hold a more vital role, where contribution is valued and you will be encouraged to bring ideas forward and eventually help mentor junior Quantity Surveyors.

The ideal candidate will have previous Quantity Surveying experience on residential housing or groundworks projects, who feels stagnant in their current role and wants to join a smaller builder where your contribution is valued.

Responsibilities

• Managing the cost control of Residential housing projects
• Producing a Bill of Quantities, procurement and cost reporting
• Working on monthly valuations through to final accounts
• Liaising with Construction, Design and Technical departments

Qualifications

• At least 3 years Quantity Surveying experience
• Residential, housing or Groundworks background
• Confident in producing Bill of Quantities and value engineering
• Ambitious and self‑motivated
