Assistant Quantity Surveyor - The human calculator who can smell an overspend from 100 yards. Location: Aldermaston/Tadley (with site visits-where your pristine spreadsheets are introduced to reality, like a luxury yacht docking at a car boot sale) Department: Strategic Works Division (think MI5, but with more invoices and less espionage) About the company: A contractor that builds things meant to stay upright, on budget, and far away from the 10 o'clock news. They specialise in MOD fit-outs-projects so secretive, even the bricks have NDAs. They're after a Quantity Surveyor/Estimator who can wrestle numbers into submission, spot risks faster than a politician spots a camera, and navigate contracts with the grace of a ballerina in steel-toe boots. The Role: You'll be the Sherlock Holmes of spreadsheets, the Attenborough of analytics, and the Gandalf of getting contracts to actually make sense (minus the beard, unless that's your thing). Mostly office-based, with the occasional site visit to breathe in the sweet aroma of wet cement and regret. What They're Looking For: Experience: 5+ years of herding budgets and making numbers behave. NEC contract knowledge? Lovely. If not, Google is free. Excel Wizardry: If your spreadsheets were novels, they'd be War and Peace. Cost Control: You can sniff out overspend faster than a bloodhound on Red Bull. Contract Whisperer: NEC, JCT-if you can read a contract without swearing (much), you're ahead of half the industry. Risk Radar: You spot risks quicker than HR spots a dodgy expense claim. Communication Ninja: Charm clients, terrify subcontractors, and send emails that actually make sense. Organisational Jedi: Your calendar is basically Fort Knox. Negotiation Pro: You'll squeeze better prices out of suppliers than your nan squeezes teabags-and she steeps them for a week. Qualifications: Bachelor's in Quantity Surveying or equivalent. Sheer stubbornness and a thousand-yard stare from budget meetings are also acceptable. Professional certifications? Lovely if you've got them. If not, we won't call the authorities. Security Clearance: Must be a British passport holder with 10 years of UK residency. Basically, if MI5 wouldn't bat an eyelid at your search history, you're good to go. Full-Time Commitment: Office-based with site visits - Monday to Friday, 8 AM to 5 PM. None of this digital nomad from Bali nonsense. I know this ad's had a bit of fun, but let's be clear-I'm a serious recruiter working with a serious contractor, and this is a seriously good opportunity. If you've got the experience and the grit to handle projects that matter, I want to hear from you. Give me (Spencer Wade) a call on (phone number removed) or drop me an email at (url removed).
