Are you an experienced and talented Project Surveyor? Would you like to be part of a rapidly growing development and construction company based in the vibrant and cosmopolitan coastal town of Bournemouth?
We are looking for a Project Surveyor for our £15 million project commencing in May 2017 in the centre of Taunton. The project is a former disused DEFRA office building, circa 46,500 sqft, which will be redeveloped with a 62 bed care home, 58 extra care apartments, communal facilities and ground floor retail units including hair & beauty, bistro dining, community hub and health & wellbeing.
The vision is to create desirable town centre properties with a range of care and lifestyle services for the over 55s and a private pay residential, nursing and specialist dementia care home facility.
Reporting directly to the COO - Construction, you will work side-by-side with the Project Manager and be jointly responsible for the project from beginning to end. This is a fulfilling, involved and extremely hands-on role within an expanding and progressive company.

You will be predominantly based on site working closely with the Project Manager to deliver the development on time and within budget. You will liaise with Directors and Managers across the Company to deliver full financial control for all relevant costs. You will aim to provide total financial solutions, adding value to projects, identifying efficiencies and agreeing budgets, by working closely with a range of departments.
It is the responsibility of the Quantity Surveyor to ensure:
I. All surveying work associated with achieving the Company's unit production programme is effectively carried out in a professional manner.
II. A budget/financial development projection is produced for each development and is effectively controlled and maintained.
What we are looking for

In-depth experience of Quantity Surveying, associated procedures and practices, preferably in the Construction and Residential Housing Sector.
Demonstrable experience in Project and Budget Management, Construction Procurement and Collaborative / Partnership Working.
A good knowledge of Risk Qualification experience.
Strong knowledge, understanding and appreciation of construction costs, measurement techniques and budget creation processes for Board approval.
An ambitious, strong and effective negotiator.
Pro-active and driven to deliver. Who we are
