We are currently looking for an experienced Senior Quantity Surveyor to join a major rail infrastructure programme, supporting the delivery of two AFA schemes in the Telford area, west of Birmingham and close to the M54.

The role will primarily focus on Wellington Station, with additional commercial support required on Kings Langley.

This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced SQS to join a high-profile infrastructure programme and play a key role in taking projects from design through to construction.

Initially, the role will be predominantly home-based and/or from the Manchester/Crewe offices.

As the projects progress towards construction, site attendance will increase, with an expectation of approximately 2 days per week on site, depending on project requirements.
