Are you ready to take your career to the next level? We're thrilled to announce an exciting opportunity for a Quantity Surveyor to join the dynamic Refresh division of our company, specialising in Refurbishment and Building Improvement.

Our projects range from building envelope and internal fire compartmentation works to full room and amenity space refurbishments. What Makes This Role Exciting?
