About you You are a Quantity Surveyor who enjoys being close to the numbers and properly running your own jobs. You like having ownership of projects rather than being a small cog in a big commercial team. You probably come from a main contractor background and you are comfortable working across several projects at once. You enjoy the rhythm of managing costs, speaking with site teams, and keeping a clear commercial picture from start to finish. This role will suit someone who prefers a straightforward environment where decisions happen quickly and where good commercial judgement is valued. You are organised, confident using Excel, and happy being mainly office based with the occasional site visit when needed. Your experience You will likely be working as a Quantity Surveyor or Assistant Quantity Surveyor ready for the next step within a main contractor environment. Experience within fit out, refurbishment or general build projects will serve you well here. The work often involves healthcare and medical centre projects, although the contractor delivers other types of construction work too. You are comfortable commercially managing multiple jobs at the same time. Typical values range from around £50k up to £2m, with the occasional larger project reaching £8m. A heavy civil engineering background will not be the right fit for this position. The focus here is building and interior construction. Good Excel skills are important as the commercial work is managed through spreadsheets rather than specialist commercial software. What you will be doing with your experience You will commercially manage around four to five projects at any one time, overseeing costs from early stages through to final account. You will prepare and manage project budgets, valuations, subcontractor packages and variations. You will work closely with delivery teams to keep projects commercially on track. Most of your time will be spent in the office where the commercial team is based. There will be occasional travel to sites across the UK when required to stay connected with project progress. Projects are typically healthcare focused, including medical centres, which brings a steady pipeline of repeat work alongside other construction projects. You will be trusted to manage your own workload and contribute commercially across several live jobs. About the business The company is an established main contractor delivering construction and fit out projects across the UK. Healthcare schemes form a significant part of their workload, particularly medical centres, although they also deliver projects in other sectors. Project values range from smaller schemes around £50k through to £2m as the core workstream, with larger projects reaching £8m. The team is experienced, practical and focused on delivering projects properly rather than overcomplicating the process. Commercial management is straightforward and built around Excel rather than large corporate systems. The salary for the role sits around £50,000 to £55,000 per year with an annual bonus on top.

About you You are a Quantity Surveyor who enjoys being close to the numbers and properly running your own jobs. You like having ownership of projects rather than being a small cog in a big commercial team. You probably come from a main contractor background and you are comfortable working across several projects at once. You enjoy the rhythm of managing costs, speaking with site teams, and keeping a clear commercial picture from start to finish. This role will suit someone who prefers a straightforward environment where decisions happen quickly and where good commercial judgement is valued. You are organised, confident using Excel, and happy being mainly office based with the occasional site visit when needed. Your experience You will likely be working as a Quantity Surveyor or Assistant Quantity Surveyor ready for the next step within a main contractor environment. Experience within fit out, refurbishment or general build projects will serve you well here. The work often involves healthcare and medical centre projects, although the contractor delivers other types of construction work too. You are comfortable commercially managing multiple jobs at the same time. Typical values range from around £50k up to £2m, with the occasional larger project reaching £8m. A heavy civil engineering background will not be the right fit for this position. The focus here is building and interior construction. Good Excel skills are important as the commercial work is managed through spreadsheets rather than specialist commercial software. What you will be doing with your experience You will commercially manage around four to five projects at any one time, overseeing costs from early stages through to final account. You will prepare and manage project budgets, valuations, subcontractor packages and variations. You will work closely with delivery teams to keep projects commercially on track. Most of your time will be spent in the office where the commercial team is based. There will be occasional travel to sites across the UK when required to stay connected with project progress. Projects are typically healthcare focused, including medical centres, which brings a steady pipeline of repeat work alongside other construction projects. You will be trusted to manage your own workload and contribute commercially across several live jobs. About the business The company is an established main contractor delivering construction and fit out projects across the UK. Healthcare schemes form a significant part of their workload, particularly medical centres, although they also deliver projects in other sectors. Project values range from smaller schemes around £50k through to £2m as the core workstream, with larger projects reaching £8m. The team is experienced, practical and focused on delivering projects properly rather than overcomplicating the process. Commercial management is straightforward and built around Excel rather than large corporate systems. The salary for the role sits around £50,000 to £55,000 per year with an annual bonus on top. The business is also in a position to hire quickly for the right person.
