Development Monitoring Surveyor Client Side London / Hybrid / Regional Flexibility £75,000 £110,000 + Strong Bonus + Benefits This is one of the strongest client-side Development Monitoring opportunities currently available in the market A specialist lender that is significantly expanding its internal Construction Risk capability as part of a wider investment into proactive loan book management and real-time development oversight. Candidates may be based outside London provided they are comfortable with regular travel across live projects and periodic attendance within the wider lending team environment. This is not a passive monitoring role. The business already appoints external Monitoring Surveyors across its projects. Your role is to actively manage those consultants, challenge reporting where required, identify emerging risks early, and provide commercially balanced oversight across a live development finance portfolio. The emphasis is firmly on proactive risk management rather than retrospective reporting. You ll work closely with credit, relationship, and lending teams while maintaining independent construction oversight across a wide range of residential, mixed-use, and commercial development schemes. For an experienced Monitoring Surveyor looking to move client-side - or someone already operating within a lender environment- this is a genuinely standout opportunity. The Role • Active management of external Monitoring Surveyors across a live development finance portfolio • Proactively monitoring project performance, delivery risk, programme exposure, and cost movement across the loan book • Reviewing IMS reporting and challenging assumptions, recommendations, and risk positions where necessary • Identifying emerging construction and delivery risks before they impact lending exposure • Supporting lending decisions through commercially balanced construction risk advice • Carrying out regular project visits and maintaining direct engagement with developers, borrowers, contractors, and consultants • Participating in project meetings where required to maintain real-time visibility across schemes • Assessing contractor performance, procurement risk, cost-to-complete exposure, programme movement, and viability concerns • Working closely with relationship managers, credit teams, and senior stakeholders across the lending platform • Supporting more complex or stressed projects where additional oversight and commercial judgement are required • Helping shape and strengthen an evolving internal Construction Risk function Essential Experience • Current live monitoring experience within a consultancy, development finance, bank monitoring, or construction risk • Strong understanding of development appraisals, drawdowns, project viability, cash flow, and construction risk • Experience overseeing live residential, mixed-use, or commercial developments • Ability to assess programme risk, contractor performance, procurement exposure, and delivery issues • Strong commercial awareness and confidence making balanced recommendations • Experience managing multiple live projects simultaneously • Excellent stakeholder management and reporting skills • Comfortable operating autonomously within a highly mobile working environment Highly Desirable • Previous experience working client-side within a bank, lender, or development finance platform • Experience managing external Monitoring Surveyors or professional consultant teams • Exposure to restructuring, credit risk, or stressed development situations • Understanding of how construction risk impacts wider loan book performance • Experience working closely with lending, relationship, or credit teams Preferred • MRICS or equivalent qualification • Experience within specialist lending or challenger banking environments • Ability to combine technical construction knowledge with strong commercial judgement Why This Opportunity Stands Out Very few monitoring roles offer this level of influence, visibility, and commercial involvement. This is a business actively investing into its Construction Risk capability. You ll sit much closer to lending decisions, portfolio management, and real-time project performance than in a traditional consultancy-side monitoring role. The environment is highly commercial, pragmatic, and proactive. You ll gain exposure to: • Active loan book management • Complex development finance transactions • High-level construction risk decision-making • Stressed and underperforming projects • Senior lending and credit stakeholders • An expanding platform with genuine long-term progression potential Salary & Package • £75,000 £110,000 basic salary depending on experience • Strong annual bonus potential • Pension • Private healthcare • Hybrid and flexible working • Long-term progression opportunities • High-profile development finance exposure Click Apply or get in touch for a confidential conversation with Andrew Pearson at EC Property Recruitment.
