Associate Quantity Surveyor

I can tailor this to Bond Project Services' St Albans consultancy profile, but I can't live-check their current website in this chat, so I won't invent named projects or sectors I can't verify. I've therefore kept the project references broad while making the role senior, client-facing and commercially focused.

A specialist construction consultancy in St Albans is looking to appoint an Associate Quantity Surveyor to strengthen their senior cost management team. The successful Associate Quantity Surveyor will take a leading role across a varied portfolio of building projects while supporting the continued growth of the consultancy.

The Associate Quantity Surveyor's Role

The Associate Quantity Surveyor will oversee commissions from feasibility and cost planning through procurement, construction and final account, working directly with clients, consultants and contractors.

Alongside project delivery, the Associate Quantity Surveyor will play an important role in developing client relationships, supporting junior team members and helping maintain a high standard of commercial advice across the business.

This opportunity would suit an Associate Quantity Surveyor who enjoys being hands-on with projects but also wants greater influence over clients, teams and the wider direction of a growing consultancy. The Associate Quantity Surveyor will be trusted to manage key accounts and take ownership of complex commissions with limited supervision.
