As we continue to expand, we are looking for a Quantity Surveyor who is technically competent, commercially minded, and understands actual construction operations.

This is a Head Office-based position in Quezon City supporting multiple ongoing and upcoming projects.

Key Responsibilities

• Prepare detailed quantity take-offs, Bills of Quantities (BOQ), and cost estimates from drawings, specifications, and project requirements.

• Review architectural, structural, and MEPF drawings and identify scope gaps, discrepancies, and potential cost risks.

• Prepare material, labor, equipment, and subcontract cost estimates.

• Assist in bid preparation, tendering, and project budgeting.

• Review and compare supplier and subcontractor quotations, including scope, quantities, rates, and exclusions.

• Review and validate subcontractor progress billings.

• Monitor actual project costs against approved budgets and identify potential overruns or savings.

• Prepare and monitor variation orders, change orders, and additional works.

• Conduct site visits when necessary to verify actual quantities and project progress.

• Coordinate closely with Project Managers, Site Engineers, Procurement, and Accounting.

• Assist in value engineering and cost-saving initiatives without compromising project quality and requirements.

• Maintain accurate BOQ, cost, billing, variation, and commercial records.

• Provide management with timely cost reports and commercial information needed for project decisions.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's Degree in Civil Engineering, Quantity Surveying, or a related field.

• At least 3 years of relevant experience in Quantity Surveying, Cost Estimating, or Construction Cost Management.

• Proficient in Microsoft Excel.

• Experience with PlanSwift, Bluebeam, AutoCAD, or similar take-off software is an advantage.

• Detail-oriented, analytical, organized, and able to handle multiple projects.

What We're Looking For

We prefer candidates who have experience in both actual site construction and quantity surveying.

The ideal candidate understands not only how to measure and estimate construction work, but also how the work is actually executed on site and how project costs affect company profitability.

We value people who take ownership, identify problems early, communicate clearly, and continuously look for better and more cost-effective ways to deliver projects.

Why Join DOZA?

• Exposure to multiple commercial, hospitality, retail, and fit-out projects.

• Opportunity to work closely with both Head Office and project teams.

• Career growth opportunities as DOZA continues to expand.
