Job description

Overview

Surveyor / Senior Surveyor
Location: Birmingham, West Midlands – flexible hybrid working available

We are looking for experienced Surveyors and Senior Surveyors to join our client’s growing infrastructure teams. This is a varied, client-facing role, advising on a broad spectrum of projects with the flexibility to focus on areas of personal interest.

The role includes valuation, negotiation, client contact, and reporting, alongside the chance to guide and mentor Graduate Surveyors. It’s an ideal step for anyone looking to develop leadership and management skills, with clear progression opportunities.

The role can be based in the Birmingham office, centrally located with excellent transport links, but given the national scope, we are open to other office locations. Regular travel to client sites will be part of the role.

This is more than just a surveying role — it’s an opportunity to shape the future of infrastructure and regeneration in the UK. You’ll gain exposure to high-profile projects, collaborate with expert colleagues, and enjoy a culture that supports growth, progression, and work-life balance. With excellent training, strong career prospects, and the chance to make a tangible impact, this is the perfect next step for ambitious surveyors.

What You’ll Do

• Deliver professional advice on valuation, acquisition, and disposal of land and rights across multiple property types.
• Manage estates within diverse portfolios.
• Produce valuation reports in line with client requirements and RICS Valuation Standards.
• Build and nurture strong client relationships.
• Support Partners while effectively managing your own workload.
• Mentor and supervise Graduate Surveyors.
• Contribute to business planning and help shape the future of the team.
• Drive the adoption of efficient systems and processes, optimising IT and resources.
• Ensure legal compliance and implement policy as required.
• Take ownership of your professional development, with full support for CPD and training needs.

About You

We welcome applications from across the public and private sectors, as well as those returning after a career break. To succeed, you’ll bring:

• MRICS accreditation (with RICS Registered Valuer status desirable).
• Strong time management, communication, and report-writing skills.
• A business development mindset, with a passion for delivering outstanding client service.
• The ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment where flexibility is key.
• Experience driving projects forward and building strong client relationships.
• A full UK driving licence.

The national Infrastructure and Regeneration team is at the forefront of delivering projects that transform how people live, work, and travel. From revitalising city and town centres, creating clean energy solutions, and driving biodiversity gains, to developing the transport networks of the future, the team plays a key role in building the UK’s 21st-century infrastructure. Projects include everything from major road and rail upgrades to renewable energy and regeneration initiatives.

Clients are as varied as the projects themselves — from national infrastructure providers, utilities, and developers to councils, housing associations, landowners, commercial occupiers, and private individuals. No two days are the same.

Working across coastal, rural, commercial, industrial, and residential property, surveyors have the chance to find their niche, specialise, and build in-demand expertise — or develop a broad, versatile skillset. With unrivalled training and development, including the flagship annual Academy (now in its seventh successful year), this is a place where careers thrive.
