Job Description
Senior Quantity Surveyor - Prime & Bespoke Residential London Permanent
Ever fancied working somewhere that's been around since the first James Bond film - and still relies on you to stop variations, rogue joinery, and over-ambitious clients from derailing the day? Perfect, we need you.
We're looking for a Senior Quantity Surveyor to join a family-run contractor with decades of London experience, specialising in renovation, extension, and bespoke one-off properties. Projects range 4m- 20m - high-end residential refurb, fit-out, and new build where every millimetre matters.
Here's the twist: you don't need super-prime residential experience. If you're a Tier 1 or strong regional QS with solid experience in refurb or high-end fit-out, this is your chance to switch lanes into London's most prestigious residential projects.
You'll manage multiple projects, handle variations, prepare valuations and final accounts, and present monthly cost analysis. Essentially, you'll be the unsung hero of construction - quietly saving projects from chaos only a QS truly understands.
Daily battles a QS will recognise:
Variations arriving for things you already priced - again.
Convincing a subcontractor their creative interpretation doesn't match the plan.
Calculating final accounts while keeping a straight face through impossible client requests.
Managing multiple screaming projects at once - and somehow making it look effortless.
We're looking for someone who:
Has Tier 1 or regional contractor experience and fancies switching lanes.
Understands high-end residential refurb / fit-out, where close enough is never enough.
Can manage valuations, final accounts, and variations with precision - and occasionally a wry smile.
Can keep architects, clients, and subcontractors onside without losing their mind (or humour).
Knows a QS is the only person on site both loved and feared - quietly saving the day.
Character counts too: Responsible. Personable. Good communicator. Strategist. Leader. People-manager.
The company:
A family-run contractor delivering technically challenging, high-value London residential projects for decades. No gimmicks, just properly run sites, good people, and a reputation that keeps clients coming back.
Discreet chat? Be good to hear from you.
