We are Shape.Construction ! About the job Contractors bleed margin on every project. Unmanaged change. Disputed claims. Missing records. When field teams don't follow processes, events go undocumented. Commercial teams scramble for evidence that doesn't exist. Disputes drag on. Recoverable profit vanishes. On high-value projects, millions of pounds disappear. Why? - Field teams use clunky tools that are too complex and too slow. Critical events never get recorded. The audit trail has gaps. - Commercial teams fight disputes with weak evidence, chase missing records, and lose recoverable margin while the business faces unnecessary claims. Shape fixes this once and for all. Shape is the only platform simple enough for field teams to adopt instantly, yet powerful enough to drive real commercial outcomes. Site teams capture every issue, event, and change in real time. Shape automatically builds the bulletproof evidence commercial teams need to defend and recover claims. The result: Fewer lost disputes. Faster resolutions. Full subcontractor accountability. Commercial teams manage change proactively instead of reacting to it. This is the problem we solve. But to really help our customers, we need experts who understand their pain first hand. Many of our customers are Quantity Surveyors. Who better to consult them than other Quantity Surveyors? That's where you come in. We are looking for a seasoned Managing Quantity Surveyor ready not just for a change of role, but a change of industry. This is your opportunity to break away from the grind of construction and step into the fast growing world of construction SaaS. As our Manager of Commercial Strategy, you'll use your hard won expertise to guide other commercial teams through the biggest challenge they face: change and claims. Instead of battling over margins on a single project, you'll be leading conversations that transform how entire companies protect their profit. This is consultative sales and customer success at the highest level - where your becomes the product and your impact scales far beyond any single contract. Purpose of the role To partner with our customers' commercial teams, helping them take control of change, disputes and claims using Shape.

Support customer adoption ensuring site and office teams use Shape consistently to capture changes, issues and claims. Coach customers on strengthening claims and defending disputes with documented, auditable records. Act as the commercial voice inside Shape, shaping product development to better match the realities of construction projects. Share best practice and lessons learned across our customer base, raising standards and outcomes for the entire industry. Your Capabilities Significant experience as a Commercial Manager or in a similar construction role. Deep understanding of how unmanaged change and poor records erode project profitability. Strong communication skills - able to win trust and explain complex issues simply. Strategic thinker who can move from diagnosing problems to implementing solutions. Desire to make an industry wide impact, not just improve a single project or business. Nice to Have (If you don't have it now you will after joining) Experience advising or consulting with multiple stakeholders. Knowledge of SaaS platforms or digital transformation in construction. Comfortable leading workshops, training sessions, or customer presentations. Ability to link commercial pain points to practical technology solutions. Shape isn't the place for you if any of the following is true You want an easy, chilled out role without much challenge You like to be the smartest person in the room You don't like continuously receiving honest candid feedback You prefer to do your own thing rather than work with a team At Shape we value diverse experiences and perspectives, empowering each member to contribute their unique capabilities towards our collective success, so if you don't think you meet all the criteria but still are excited about this role we encourage you to apply anyway!

The audit trail has gaps. - Commercial teams fight disputes with weak evidence, chase missing records, and lose recoverable margin while the business faces unnecessary claims. Shape fixes this once and for all. Shape is the only platform simple enough for field teams to adopt instantly, yet powerful enough to drive real commercial outcomes. Site teams capture every issue, event, and change in real time. Shape automatically builds the bulletproof evidence commercial teams need to defend and recover claims. The result: Fewer lost disputes. Faster resolutions. Full subcontractor accountability. Commercial teams manage change proactively instead of reacting to it. This is the problem we solve. But to really help our customers, we need experts who understand their pain first hand. Many of our customers are Quantity Surveyors. Who better to consult them than other Quantity Surveyors? That's where you come in. We are looking for a seasoned Managing Quantity Surveyor ready not just for a change of role, but a change of industry. This is your opportunity to break away from the grind of construction and step into the fast growing world of construction SaaS. As our Manager of Commercial Strategy, you'll use your hard won expertise to guide other commercial teams through the biggest challenge they face: change and claims. Instead of battling over margins on a single project, you'll be leading conversations that transform how entire companies protect their profit. This is consultative sales and customer success at the highest level - where your becomes the product and your impact scales far beyond any single contract. Purpose of the role To partner with our customers' commercial teams, helping them take control of change, disputes and claims using Shape. You will use your industry expertise to show them how to protect margin, build defensible records, and prevent the losses that most projects suffer today. Your top 5 responsibilities Consult with commercial leaders to uncover where they are losing profit to change and disputes, and show how Shape stops margin leakage. Support customer adoption ensuring site and office teams use Shape consistently to capture changes, issues and claims. Coach customers on strengthening claims and defending disputes with documented, auditable records. Act as the commercial voice inside Shape, shaping product development to better match the realities of construction projects. Share best practice and lessons learned across our customer base, raising standards and outcomes for the entire industry. Your Capabilities Significant experience as a Commercial Manager or in a similar construction role. Deep understanding of how unmanaged change and poor records erode project profitability. Strong communication skills - able to win trust and explain complex issues simply. Strategic thinker who can move from diagnosing problems to implementing solutions. Desire to make an industry wide impact, not just improve a single project or business. Nice to Have (If you don't have it now you will after joining) Experience advising or consulting with multiple stakeholders. Knowledge of SaaS platforms or digital transformation in construction. Comfortable leading workshops, training sessions, or customer presentations. Ability to link commercial pain points to practical technology solutions. Shape isn't the place for you if any of the following is true You want an easy, chilled out role without much challenge You like to be the smartest person in the room You don't like continuously receiving honest candid feedback You prefer to do your own thing rather than work with a team At Shape we value diverse experiences and perspectives, empowering each member to contribute their unique capabilities towards our collective success, so if you don't think you meet all the criteria but still are excited about this role we encourage you to apply anyway! Salary and Benefits Standard Stuff Extremely competitive Paid annual leave (varies by location) + statutory bank holidays Private health insurance In house coaching sessions Discretionary bonus scheme for all team members The Life Changing Stuff 4 Day Weeks: that's right, every week Flexibility: We care about outcomes, not clock watching Grow your whole self: Access to a coach, mentor, well being therapist and a development focused environment designed to give you 5 years of growth in 1 year Be surrounded by the best: We only hire the top talent; progression is fast and development is unbounded. Long term impact: Shape is tackling the single biggest issue in construction delivery, with solutions designed to spread and outlast us.
