Quantity Surveyor / Senior Quantity Surveyor Central London RC Frame & Groundwork Subcontractor £70,000 - £100,000 + Package (depending on experience) PAYE or Self-Employed About the Opportunity: I am looking for an experienced Quantity Surveyor/Senior Quantity Surveyor interested in joining a leading concrete frame and groundwork subcontractor. Your position in the business will report directly to the commercial director and you will be responsible for overseeing a variety of concrete frame, basement, and groundwork packages from award through to final account. There is room for progression within this business as they are currently turning over around £200 million per annum across the country and they are still growing. I am looking for career-focused individuals who want the opportunity to be part of a close-knit team that is all working towards building a great business in this competitive sector. So, if you are an experienced concrete frame or groundwork quantity surveyor and you want to join one of the absolute best businesses in this sector with lots of opportunities for people to develop, this could be the perfect option. P.S. If this company doesn t fit what you are looking for, please still contact me as I have at least 15 other quantity surveying positions available with RC frame and groundwork subcontractors based in and around London. About the Company: This business is without doubt one of the best in this sector. They specialise in taking projects from enabling works through to the completion of the frame. With focused teams handling remediation, demolition, groundwork, and concrete frame packages, they are well-equipped to handle packages ranging from £10 million to £50 million (or above) each. Their client base includes top-tier developers, main contractors, and direct users, and their sectors of work include residential, commercial, energy, infrastructure, and industrial. They have offices in and around London, with a large proportion of their workload inside the M25. On a personal note, I work very closely with this business not only because of their size and capability but also because of their vision, goals, and attitude towards what they do and how they do it. From the owners to the site staff, there is a focus on standing out as one of the best at what they do. Their constant reinvestment to boost innovation, improvement, and success has helped them reach their current standings and I can see them climbing even further in the years to come. As a recruiter, a big thing for me is the feedback I receive from the people I place with businesses, and once again this business excels, with glowing comments coming back from all levels, mentioning excitement around what they are accomplishing, combined with positivity around how their team work together.

About the Requirements: To be successful individuals need to have worked for rival concrete frame or groundwork subcontractors in the UK as a Quantity Surveyor or Senior Quantity Surveyor. Your hard work will be rewarded and opportunity will be there but previous experience in this sector is a must. Due to the technical nature of the position, it is also crucial that all applicants are degree-qualified in quantity surveying or commercial management.

About the Benefits: For this opportunity, I am targeting someone looking to earn between £70,000 to £100,000 per annum (depending if you are a QS or Senior QS). This bracket is flexible and starting figures will be based on experience and previous history but in addition to this, our client is offering a comprehensive package including the usual s such as pension, car or travel allowance, and also a good bonus scheme. If you would prefer a self-employed payment method, we can consider people on a limited company (or similar) basis. Day rates will be negotiated to reach a similar annual amount. But aside from the earning potential, this opportunity really does offer the right individual exciting career options with a fantastic organisation. How to Apply: I am more than happy to discuss this opportunity with people over the phone or face to face in a fully confidential manner (you can get to know me while I get to know you). And I know this is an incestuous sector and I fully understand the importance of keeping things discrete. Alternatively, it would be ideal to see a copy of your CV to understand your previous experience and employment. In line with GDPR, nothing will be done with your CV/details until we have discussed the role in detail anyway, but having gained an understanding of your formal past, this may help when we come to talk and discuss the option. Either way, my contact details are listed below: Email (remove all spaces): ltd . com Tel: (phone number removed) About Me, Your Consultant: My name is Andrew Jackson and I am one of the founding directors of Cityscape Recruitment Ltd.

So, what does that mean for you? It means I know what I am doing. I work with the vast majority of the groundwork and concrete frame businesses in the UK. I can introduce you to the ones you want to target. I can give you up-to-date information on each of them. All to help you make an informed decision so you can take your career forward. I ve been doing this for a fair while now and I ve maintained a positive reputation because I don t tell people whatever it takes, I tell them the truth.
