Quantity Surveyor – Concrete Frames or Groundworks
London & Southern Home Counties Projects
£50,000 to £80,000 + Package
About the Opportunity:
I am looking for two Quantity Surveyors that are interested in joining a growing concrete frame and groundwork subcontractor based on the borders of Essex and East London with offices also near Gatwick. Your position in the business will report either directly to the commercial director or to a commercial manager (depending on your level of experience) and you will be responsible for overseeing either one individual project or a selection of concrete frame or groundwork packages from precontract stages through to the final account. There is room for progression with this business as they are currently turning over around £130 million but plans for the coming years will see them growing well beyond this. They already have their turnover secured for 2023. We are 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 groundwork or concrete frame quantity surveyor and you want to join a growing business with lots of opportunities for people to develop, this could be the perfect option.
About the Company:
Like many other businesses in this sector, this organisation was formed from two leading directors from previous businesses that joined forces to create something new. The business has a specialist housebuilding groundworks division but the bulk of their work is and always will be focused around the residential concrete frame and groundwork sector. With strong ties to clients such as Bellway, Redrow, Berkeley’s, Barratt’s, and Countryside, this business is growing year on year and is looking to recruit now to help develop the team. It is this growth that will bring opportunity, as those who have aspirations to develop their own careers and possibly manage others, will be given the opportunity as the company climbs.
Also, having met the MD myself, I can add that the clear vision for the business is to offer an exceptional service, with quality and safety at the forefront while focusing on maintaining and strengthening the relationships they have with some of the best developers in town. I walked away from a meeting with them recently excited about their future and impressed by where they are already and since then I’ve had numerous people asking me about them. They have quickly become the one to watch and the one people want to join.
About the Requirements:
To be successful individuals need to have worked for rival groundwork or concrete frame subcontractors in the UK as a Quantity Surveyor. Your hard work will be rewarded and opportunity will be there but this 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. And due to the location of our client’s office, it is also advisable that applicants are based in or around Essex, Kent, South London or the southern home counties to make the journey to either of their offices a sensible one. Travel in and around town will be expected for site visits but it is expected that a certain proportion of time will be at the office.
About the Benefits:
For this opportunity, I am targeting anyone looking to earn between £50,000 to £80,000 per annum. 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 but also a structured bonus scheme.
If you would prefer a self-employed payment method, we can consider people on a limited company basis with pay rates averaging around £250 to £350 per day. But aside from the earning potential, this opportunity really does offer the right person an exciting career option 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:

About Me and How I Work:
My name is Andrew Jackson and I am one of the founding directors of Cityscape Recruitment Ltd. I have over 17 years of experience in civil engineering & construction recruitment, during which time, I have specialised in the niche sectors of concrete frames, groundworks, basement construction, and demolition.
So, what does that mean for you? It means you won’t be trusting your career to a rookie. I work with the vast majority of the groundwork & concrete frame businesses in the UK and I can help not only introduce you but can give you up-to-date information on each of them, helping 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 doing what I do because I don’t tell people whatever it takes, I tell them the truth. My job is to get you the options you want, give you the information you need, and then to let you decide what feels right for you

Each opportunity will involve the usual surveying duties (i.e., taking projects from start to final account making sure budgets are maintained and profit levels are maximised while reporting any necessary changes) on reinforced concrete (RC) frame and associated groundwork packages for a mixture of residential and commercial clients.
Each opportunity will report to the company’s commercial director and you will be responsible for anywhere from 1 to 5 live packages at any one time (depending on your level of experience and the individual package sizes). Package values for each of these contractors range from £3m up to £50m each (with the majority being between £5m to £25m each) and all are in or around London.
Office Locations – 23 positions available:
* Hertfordshire x 6
* North West and West London x 6
* North London x 2
* East London x 2
* Surrey x 2
* Kent x 2
* Essex x 3
About the Requirements:
The requirements for these opportunities are fairly straightforward;
I can only consider individuals who have worked as a Quantity Surveyor or Senior Quantity Surveyor for either Groundwork or Concrete Frame subcontractors/principal contractors in the UK. My clients have been fairly specific on this point.
Based on the locations, these roles would suit individuals based in or around London, and while some office locations will suit you more than others, it is worth noting, at least two of these positions offer remote working and the rest will all involve a certain amount of autonomy as you will be responsible for managing your own diary to get around your own site locations.
And due to the technical nature of these opportunities, it is also crucial that all applicants are degree qualified in Quantity Surveying or Commercial Management.
About the Benefits & Rewards:
For the right professionals our clients are looking to offer market leading packages including a strong starting salary or day rate with added benefits.
If PAYE you can expect a starting salary ranging from £70,000 to £100,000 depending on your experience, plus a car allowance, full benefits and targeted related bonuses.
If self-employed, day rates range roughly from around £300 to £450 per day (depending on your experience) and you will be covered for travel costs and you will also be given project related bonuses.
About Me, Your Consultant:
My name is Andrew Jackson and I am one of the founding directors of Cityscape Recruitment Ltd. I have over 17 years of experience in civil engineering & construction recruitment, during which time, I have specialised in the niche sectors of concrete frames, groundworks, basement construction and demolition.
So, what does that mean for you? It means, I work with the vast majority of the groundwork & concrete frame businesses in the UK and I can help not only introduce you, but I can give you up to date information on each of them, helping you make an informed decision so you can take your career forward.
I’ve been doing this for a while now and I’ve maintained a positive reputation doing what I do because I don’t tell people false truths, I tell them everything I know and then let them choose. My job is simply to get you the options, give you the information and then let you decide what feels right for you.
How to Apply:
I am more than happy to discuss these opportunities with you 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.
It would be ideal to see a copy of your CV to understand your previous experience and employment. In line with GDPR laws, 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 discuss options.

On a side note, to back up the relationship the MD of the business has with his inner core, most years the team are known to go on skiing holidays and similar together.

Quantity Surveyor / Senior Quantity Surveyor – 15 Opportunities Available
£40,000 - £100,000 / £200 - £450 per day
Sectors of Work:
* Reinforced Concrete (RC) Frames
* Groundwork
* Basement Construction
Office Locations:
* Middlesex (4)
* Hertfordshire (2)
* Essex (2)
* London (4)
* Kent (3)
Project Locations:
* London (North, South, East & West)
* Middlesex
* Hertfordshire
* Essex
* Surrey
* Sussex
* Kent
In and around the M25 motorway
About the Opportunities:
Working within the surveying team, you will be responsible for all the commercial matters on either individual or multiple packages around London and the surrounding Home Counties (mostly inside the M25).
Individual package sizes vary depending on the size and capability of each subcontractor, but a rough range is from £1 million up to £20 million each for most of the businesses and then a couple who would look at Senior Surveyors based on 1 to 2 packages at a time with values of £20 million to £40 million each.
Company size varies as well, with the smallest of these contractors turning over around £40 million per annum and the largest turning over around £200 million per annum. We have clients of all sizes and capabilities within these fields, currently looking to recruit but most currently turnover around £50 million to £150 million per annum.
While reporting to the Commercial Director or Managing Surveyor of each business, you will be expected to take packages from the start through to final account, monitoring costs and maximising profit while working with the operational team to keep projects in line and develop client relationships.
Also, for candidates looking for a progressive move, our clients have asked us to highlight that there is room for these positions to progress and candidates looking to step straight into a Senior QS / Commercial Managers role, will have the opportunity if the right level of capability is apparent.
About the Requirements:
To be considered for these roles, candidates will need to be qualified (or at least part qualified) in Quantity Surveying / Commercial Management and will need to have gained experience working for rival subcontractors in one of the specialist fields mentioned above in the Sectors of Work. Candidates who have not worked for Groundwork, RC Frame, Basement or Enabling Works Sub Contractors, cannot be considered.
Due to the level of these positions, it is also important that candidates have the ability to manage their own projects without supervision and are based in the South East (around London), so that the daily commute to our client’s offices and sites, is a reasonable one. Outside of this, the usual Surveying duties will apply.
About the Salary / Rates / Packages:
For candidates at the right level of experience, our clients are offering very strong basic salaries, plus the option of a car allowance, travel allowance or company car. In addition, each company’s benefits structure is different, but some offer a pension, health care, and other fringe benefits for PAYE employees.
For candidates looking to work on a self-employed basis, suitable daily rates will be agreed upon, plus any travel costs and basic benefits in line with a long-term/permanent role.
How to Apply:

Quantity Surveyor / Senior Quantity Surveyor – 15 Opportunities Available
£40,000 - £100,000 / £200 - £450 per day
Sectors of Work:

* Groundwork
* Basement Construction
Office Locations:
* Middlesex (4)
* Hertfordshire (2)
* Essex (2)
* London (4)
* Kent (3)
Project Locations:
* London (North, South, East & West)
* Middlesex
* Hertfordshire

In and around the M25 motorway
About the Opportunities:
Working within the surveying team, you will be responsible for all the commercial matters on either individual or multiple packages around London and the surrounding Home Counties (mostly inside the M25).
Individual package sizes vary depending on the size and capability of each subcontractor, but a rough range is from £1 million up to £20 million each for most of the businesses and then a couple who would look at Senior Surveyors based on 1 to 2 packages at a time with values of £20 million to £40 million each.
Company size varies as well, with the smallest of these contractors turning over around £40 million per annum and the largest turning over around £200 million per annum. We have clients of all sizes and capabilities within these fields, currently looking to recruit but most currently turnover around £50 million to £150 million per annum.
While reporting to the Commercial Director or Managing Surveyor of each business, you will be expected to take packages from the start through to final account, monitoring costs and maximising profit while working with the operational team to keep projects in line and develop client relationships.
Also, for candidates looking for a progressive move, our clients have asked us to highlight that there is room for these positions to progress and candidates looking to step straight into a Senior QS / Commercial Managers role, will have the opportunity if the right level of capability is apparent.
About the Requirements:
To be considered for these roles, candidates will need to be qualified (or at least part qualified) in Quantity Surveying / Commercial Management and will need to have gained experience working for rival subcontractors in one of the specialist fields mentioned above in the Sectors of Work. Candidates who have not worked for Groundwork, RC Frame, Basement or Enabling Works Sub Contractors, cannot be considered.
Due to the level of these positions, it is also important that candidates have the ability to manage their own projects without supervision and are based in the South East (around London), so that the daily commute to our client’s offices and sites, is a reasonable one. Outside of this, the usual Surveying duties will apply.
About the Salary / Rates / Packages:
For candidates at the right level of experience, our clients are offering very strong basic salaries, plus the option of a car allowance, travel allowance or company car. In addition, each company’s benefits structure is different, but some offer a pension, health care, and other fringe benefits for PAYE employees.
For candidates looking to work on a self-employed basis, suitable daily rates will be agreed upon, plus any travel costs and basic benefits in line with a long-term/permanent role.
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. And I know this is an incestuous sector and I fully understand the importance of keeping things discrete.
