The Company: We are working with a long-established Regional Contractor who have an excellent reputation for completing projects safely, to budget, on time and to a high standard. They are capable of taking on construction projects valued up to and above £10 Million for a varied client base which are almost exclusively based in the North West of England. They are privately owned, profitable and are active in a number of market sectors. They have a small number of clients who provide them with the majority of their work load, new clients also come to them due to their well-earned reputation. The staff turnover is very low as their team enjoy working here, are well trained and rewarded for their work. Their office is based in an out-of-town centre location and they have ample parking so avoids congestion and car parking charges! Their aim is not to be the cheapest, they resource jobs properly with the right staff, Health and Safety is a key focus and materials and plant are of a high standard. The Role: Due to planned expansion, they have asked us to help them to recruit a Commercial Trainee to join their team. The role is unusual as it involves working across a number of commercial functions before deciding which discipline you'd like to focus on and developing your career in that area. You will spend time Estimating within the preconstruction team, reporting directly to their Pre-Construction Director, helping them to secure work in a small but highly successful pre-construction team, working within their procurement function as a Buyer under a very experienced Senior Buyer and Quantity Surveying working closely with the Commercial Director. This is a very rare opportunity for someone to gain a great understanding of the commercial roles within this business before making an informed decision about where they want to take their career. You: They would like to speak with recent Quantity Surveying Graduates, final year Quantity Surveying students or someone with some practical experience gained in one of the commercial functions mentioned above for a main contractor or subcontractor who is ready to take on a new role. You will be IT literate and have good communication skills. You will need to be able to commute to their offices so will likely live in Merseyside or surrounding areas. Rewards: This is a really rare opportunity to join a highly successful and well-regarded business in an entry level commercial role with lots of scope for development. You will be working with a successful contractor who work on varied and technically challenging construction projects surrounded by knowledgeable construction professionals.
