About you If you are an experienced Quantity Surveyor who likes having ownership of your projects and managing the commercial side properly from procurement through to final account, this could be a good opportunity for you. You will be joining an established construction business from their Stevenage office, working across multiple projects throughout the South East. Ideally, your background will be within industrial or commercial construction. That is not essential if you have strong transferable experience from another construction sector and can demonstrate that you understand the commercial management of projects. You will need to live within roughly 20 miles of Stevenage and be well positioned to travel to projects across the South East. The salary is £50,000 to £55,000 per annum, plus car allowance, healthcare and pension. Your experience You will need a Quantity Surveying related degree and ideally around 10 years of industry experience. You should have a good understanding of JCT contracts and subcontracts and be comfortable taking commercial responsibility for your own projects. Your experience should include procurement, subcontractor management, valuations, variations, forecasting and cost reporting. You will also need experience managing the commercial requirements of several projects concurrently. This is important as you will not simply be concentrating on one project at a time. Industrial or commercial construction experience would be preferred, although the business is open to considering Quantity Surveyors from other sectors where the skills and project experience are genuinely transferable. What you will be doing with your experience You will take commercial responsibility for a number of construction projects across the South East. You will manage procurement and subcontract packages, deal with valuations and variations, monitor project costs and produce accurate forecasts and cost reports. You will work with JCT contracts and subcontracts and make sure the commercial position of each project is properly managed throughout its lifecycle. As you will be looking after multiple projects concurrently, you need to be organised and comfortable moving between different schemes while maintaining a clear understanding of where each one stands commercially. You will work closely with the operational teams, subcontractors and clients, giving you involvement across the full commercial delivery of your projects rather than being restricted to one part of the Quantity Surveying process. About the business You will be joining an established construction business delivering projects across the industrial and commercial sectors. The role will be based from their Stevenage office, with projects across the South East, so it is important that you are based locally and comfortable travelling to sites when required. They are looking for an experienced Quantity Surveyor who can take ownership of their workload, manage several projects at the same time and bring a strong understanding of commercial construction. The salary is £50,000 to £55,000 per annum, plus car allowance, healthcare and pension.
