Senior Quantity Surveyor - Capital Works Location: North West London (Secure National Site) Portfolio Value: c. 10m per annum Salary: Competitive + Car Allowance + Leading Benefits Package Are you a commercially driven Surveyor who excels in both the high-pressure environment of pre-construction and the precision of project delivery? I am seeking a Senior Quantity Surveyor to spearhead the commercial management of a 10m annual Capital Works program. Based on a high-security, mission-critical estate, this role offers a unique opportunity to manage a diverse portfolio of 5 to 20 concurrent projects, ranging from essential infrastructure upgrades to complex facility enhancements. The Challenge As the commercial lead for Capital Works, you won't just be "number crunching." You will be the bridge between initial client concepts and operational reality. Your role is dual-faceted: securing the pipeline through expert cost planning and then ensuring rigorous financial execution through the delivery phase. Key Responsibilities: Pre-Construction & Tendering: Develop robust cost plans that demonstrate clear Value for Money (VfM). You will lead the tendering process, working closely with the client to secure works and transition them seamlessly to the operations team. Governance & Process: Navigate a complex commercial landscape by executing projects strictly per the Governance Matrix. You will own the sign-off steps and ensure every deliverable meets our stringent commercial reporting standards. Project Oversight: Manage a high-volume portfolio (between 5 and 20 active jobs). You will ensure the operations team is fully informed, projects are accurately forecasted, and delivery aligns with financial targets. Commercial Intelligence: Take full ownership of Cost Value Reconciliations (CVRs). You must be confident in articulating costs, overheads, and recovery costs, providing deep-dive analysis on any variances. Leadership: Manage and mentor a team of Trainee / Assistant Surveyors, fostering their development while maintaining the accuracy of the overall program forecast. About You You are a disciplined SQS who thrives on process and accountability. You understand that in a high-security environment, "near enough" isn't good enough.

Senior Quantity Surveyor - Capital Works Location: North West London (Secure National Site) Portfolio Value: c. 10m per annum Salary: Competitive + Car Allowance + Leading Benefits Package Are you a commercially driven Surveyor who excels in both the high-pressure environment of pre-construction and the precision of project delivery? I am seeking a Senior Quantity Surveyor to spearhead the commercial management of a 10m annual Capital Works program. Based on a high-security, mission-critical estate, this role offers a unique opportunity to manage a diverse portfolio of 5 to 20 concurrent projects, ranging from essential infrastructure upgrades to complex facility enhancements. The Challenge As the commercial lead for Capital Works, you won't just be "number crunching." You will be the bridge between initial client concepts and operational reality. Your role is dual-faceted: securing the pipeline through expert cost planning and then ensuring rigorous financial execution through the delivery phase. Key Responsibilities: Pre-Construction & Tendering: Develop robust cost plans that demonstrate clear Value for Money (VfM). You will lead the tendering process, working closely with the client to secure works and transition them seamlessly to the operations team. Governance & Process: Navigate a complex commercial landscape by executing projects strictly per the Governance Matrix. You will own the sign-off steps and ensure every deliverable meets our stringent commercial reporting standards. Project Oversight: Manage a high-volume portfolio (between 5 and 20 active jobs). You will ensure the operations team is fully informed, projects are accurately forecasted, and delivery aligns with financial targets. Commercial Intelligence: Take full ownership of Cost Value Reconciliations (CVRs). You must be confident in articulating costs, overheads, and recovery costs, providing deep-dive analysis on any variances. Leadership: Manage and mentor a team of Trainee / Assistant Surveyors, fostering their development while maintaining the accuracy of the overall program forecast.
