I have a great opportunity for an Assistant / Quantity Surveyor to join a high end residential building contractor on a permanent basis, based out of Surrey / Berkshire.

The company initially carry out small extensions and alterations within the high end residential sector to build one off bespoke houses, to now building small – medium sized developments around the Southern Home Counties.

Regardless of the project, the aim remains the same; to exceed their clients’ high expectations. Client focus and an uncompromising attitude to quality of finish are the driving forces behind the success of their business.

The successful Assistant / Quantity Surveyor will be working on new build, and will be involved in procurement, sub-contracts, contract accounting and valuations, working alongside the Commercial Director and Managing Director to procure the various items on the project and keep within budget.

Ultimately the Assistant / Quantity Surveyor will be responsible for maximising the gross margin on the company’s building contracts by working with the Commercial Manager and Contracts Manager, accurately assessing costs during delivery of the contract and in justifying to and claiming from clients all contractual payments due to the company.
