To support this expansion, they are looking for an Assistant Quantity Surveyor to join them at their Livingston head office, and you will be reporting directly to a manager who has just walked in your shoes and who is eager to mentor the right person. This vacancy exists because the current Quantity Surveyor has been promoted internally to a Senior QS / Project Manager role and they are looking for an ambitious Assistant Quantity Surveyor to join and work directly alongside them. The Role Your core responsibility will be to manage the commercial success of our developments, from the first drawing to the final account. Working under the guidance of the Senior QS/PM, you will cover: 1. Tendering & Estimating (Pre-Construction) • Produce fully itemised tenders from project drawings and price Bills of Quantities (BoQ). • Create project appraisals and feasibility studies. • Obtain and compare sub-contractor quotes to ensure "like-for-like" coverage. • Produce full construction budgets and "first principles" work packages. 2.

We aren't setting too strict requirements - whether you have a strong industrial placement under your belt or have been working as an Assistant QS for a while, we want a collaborative team player who knows their way around a site and a spreadsheet. • Education: Relevant Quantity Surveying qualifications required. • Mobility: A full driving license is required, for periodic site visits. • Skills: You are highly competent with numbers, can comfortably read construction drawings, and know the basics of valuations and CVRs. • Attitude: You are driven, pragmatic, and leave your ego at the door. You want to understand why we price things a certain way, rather than just crunching numbers. The Package: • Salary: £40,000 - £50,000 per annum (based on experience) • Holiday: 29 days annual leave (inclusive of bank holidays). • Work Pattern: Monday Friday How to Apply This vacancy is being handled exclusively by Realise Recruitment as retained partners of Rosewood Homes.

The Role Your core responsibility will be to manage the commercial success of our developments, from the first drawing to the final account. Working under the guidance of the Senior QS/PM, you will cover: 1. Tendering & Estimating (Pre-Construction) • Produce fully itemised tenders from project drawings and price Bills of Quantities (BoQ). • Create project appraisals and feasibility studies. • Obtain and compare sub-contractor quotes to ensure "like-for-like" coverage. • Produce full construction budgets and "first principles" work packages. 2. Financial Management & Valuations • Produce monthly valuations and manage actual costs vs. budget. • Capture all project variations and price customer extras. • Complete "Cost to Complete" exercises to forecast final project outcomes. • Agree Final Accounts with Clients and PQS. 3. Sub-Contractor & Material Management • Produce sub-contract orders and pricing documents. • Process sub-contract payments, ensuring works are signed off and accounts agreed. • Produce full material lists and quantities to assist the Purchasing Officer. 4. Site & Commercial Support • Complete on-site measurements to verify payments. • Act as the day-to-day contact for commercial queries from the site team. • Identify and mitigate commercial risks early. • Attend pre-order, valuation, and project review meetings. About You: We aren't looking for a blank slate, but we also aren't looking for someone set in their ways. You ve had your feet under the desk somewhere before, you understand how a commercial office runs, have moved beyond just textbook theory - and are now looking for a place to put down roots as a valued team member. • Experience: You have practical, hands-on experience in a commercial QS role within construction or housebuilding. We aren't setting too strict requirements - whether you have a strong industrial placement under your belt or have been working as an Assistant QS for a while, we want a collaborative team player who knows their way around a site and a spreadsheet. • Education: Relevant Quantity Surveying qualifications required. • Mobility: A full driving license is required, for periodic site visits. • Skills: You are highly competent with numbers, can comfortably read construction drawings, and know the basics of valuations and CVRs. • Attitude: You are driven, pragmatic, and leave your ego at the door. You want to understand why we price things a certain way, rather than just crunching numbers. The Package: • Salary: £40,000 - £50,000 per annum (based on experience) • Holiday: 29 days annual leave (inclusive of bank holidays). • Work Pattern: Monday Friday How to Apply This vacancy is being handled exclusively by Realise Recruitment as retained partners of Rosewood Homes.
