I'm recruiting a senior Monitoring Surveyor to take immediate responsibility for an established Scottish lender portfolio. This is not a slow-burn hire, and not a training role. You'll step straight into live projects, manage your own workload, and be trusted to deliver. If you're already doing monitoring - or doing it as a part of your current role - this is a chance to focus fully on it, with autonomy, strong fee income, and genuine long-term progression. This appointment is part of a wider plan to grow the Scottish monitoring team. The immediate priority is delivery, but the longer-term objective is to build additional capacity beneath this role as workload continues to expand. For the right person, this develops into a senior position with influence over how the team evolves. The Role This is a senior, delivery-led monitoring position primarily covering Scotland's Central Belt, with the bulk of work across Glasgow and Edinburgh with some projects a little further afield (e.g Dundee, Aberdeen). You'll manage a live caseload from day one, with responsibility for quality, judgement, and client confidence - not just site visits. Key responsibilities include: Managing a live portfolio of lender and fund monitoring instructions, preparing detailed initial due diligence and risk reports, undertaking regular site inspections and monthly monitoring reports. Assessing progress, cost to complete, programme, and drawdown requests Liaising directly with lenders, funds, borrowers, and project teams Managing reporting timetables and site visits autonomously Maintaining consistent reporting standards across varied lender templates Projects span private residential, serviced accommodation, PBSA, hotels, and office conversions. Values range from c. £1m schemes through to £30 million, although on occasion they do large multi-phase developments in excess of £100m. A sensible workload is around 12-15 live projects- busy, but manageable. This will enable you to comfortably hit your bonus target. Who This Suits They want someone very much in the mould of the people they already trust. You'll ideally have: Proven experience acting as Monitoring Surveyor for banks or development funders A QS, Building Surveying, or Project Management background. Strong technical judgement and clear, lender-friendly report writing. Confidence running live instructions without close supervision. Experience managing multiple projects concurrently. Comfort dealing directly with lenders and funds MRICS is welcome but not essential if your monitoring experience is strong. This will suit someone who: Is already specialising in monitoring, or is doing monitoring within a larger consultancy and wants to formalise that path Working Style Fully home-based Total autonomy over your diary Regional site visits across the Central Belt Quarterly one-day team sessions in London There is no expectation to sit in an office. You'll be trusted to plan your time, manage your workload, and deliver. Support is there when needed - but micromanagement is not part of the culture. Salary, Bonus & Package The role can be appointed at Senior or Associate Director level, depending on experience. Indicative base salary: Senior / Associate: £50,000 - £60,000 Associate Director : £60,000 - £70,000 (depending on experience) In addition to base salary: Car allowance Pension Commission-style bonus linked directly to your own fee delivery The bonus is transparent and performance-led- hitting target fee levels typically delivers a circa 15% bonus, with further upside for overperformance. Total earnings are materially higher than base alone. Progression At six months, success looks like being fully embedded with a double-digit live caseload. At twelve months, you'll be a senior presence in Scotland - helping stabilise delivery and enabling future growth, including the potential to support or mentor a more junior hire. This is a genuine senior role with influence, not just a title. The Process Initial confidential conversation Interview focused on real monitoring scenarios Final sign-off This is a live hire, and they are keen to move quickly for the right person.

Location: Sale or Dartford (national travel as required - flexible base) Reporting to: Technical Director (operational) and Planning Leader (functional) We are looking for a Senior or Principal Planner with the confidence, curiosity, and collaborative mindset to help shape how design planning is delivered across Laing O'Rourke. This unique role sits at the intersection of Planning, Technical, and Design Management - focusing on delivering better project outcomes through consistent standards, integrated design programmes, and early stage assurance.

Beginning in PCSA and progressing into live works, you will ensure the planning and design elements of our projects are fully aligned with Laing O'Rourke's standards, guidance, and technical governance. Working with project teams, planners, technical leaders, design consultants, subcontractors, and approving bodies, you will help produce integrated and assured design programmes that reduce inefficiencies and improve "right first time" outcomes. You'll also be a core part of our geographically distributed planning community - supporting consistent delivery across all projects and sectors while enabling client specific flexibility. A key aspect of this role involves guiding teams through change and championing the value of enhanced design planning practices. Key Responsibilities Design Planning Deployment & Assurance Implement and adapt the Laing O'Rourke Preconstruction Programme Template across bids, PCSAs and projects. Peer review tender, PCSA, contract and project programmes to Builds (PtBs) to ensure full integration of design consultant and supply chain inputs. Act as the interface between Technical/Design Management and Planning to ensure design and assurance requirements are accurately reflected in the programme. Design Information Management & Tracking Support the creation of Master Information Delivery Plans (MIDPs) and Task Information Delivery Plans (TIDPs). Communicate and track design release timelines to align with project needs. Support integration of programme data into the Design Performance Measurement System. Standards & Continuous Improvement Develop and refine design planning guidance, processes and training materials. Contribute to enhancement of the Preconstruction Template and share updates across planning and design functions. Collect benchmarking data and support audits to drive consistency and compliance. Project Support & Change Management Assist with programme impact assessments, mitigation strategies, and delay analysis for design related change. Review consultant and supplier design programmes for scope accuracy and contractual compliance. Support identification of design resource needs and track performance against KPIs. Team & Capability Development Deliver training, workshops, and guidance for planners, design managers, technical leaders and consultants. Support resource development, mentoring and retention across the planning community. Essential Skills & Experience Strong proficiency in P6 and/or ASTA (both build and infrastructure experience valued). Experience with pre contract planning, design programme development, and maintaining construction programmes. Excellent communication and facilitation skills across multidisciplinary teams. Experience implementing strategic planning / programme management systems. Ability to engage both senior leadership and end users, tailoring communication appropriately. Desired Skills & Experience Experience leading a planning and on a project. Experience driving process improvements or business advancements. Familiarity with design stages and relevant assurance frameworks (RIBA 2020, BSIRA, or similar). Awareness of discipline interdependencies (Architectural/Structural/Civils/MEP). Familiarity with Network Rail PACE stages (formerly GRIP). Degree in Construction Management, Civil Engineering or a related discipline, and CIOB membership (or working toward it). If you're ready to take ownership of a specialism that's becoming critical to project success, this role offers the chance to lead from the front. You'll shape the way design planning is done across the business and directly influence outcomes on our most complex projects. Join us and help set a new benchmark for design excellence.
