Job Description

Quantity Surveyor – Permanent job – Hybrid - London-based sites – up to £65K - Tier One Main Contractor

Your new company
Join a leading Tier 1 contractor that delivers high‑quality construction projects across both public and private sectors and pride themselves on creating exceptional outcomes for clients, partners and our people. You’ll be part of an ambitious, progressive team that offers a safe, supportive and a rewarding environment where you can thrive and grow.

Your new role
You’ll play a key role in the London construction team and work from sites based in the capital. You will be a key worker on key projects between £10m - 60m, managing subcontractor accounts to secure full financial and contractual entitlements and ensure payments are accurate and on time. You’ll produce accurate financial reporting and support cost value reconciliation and cashflow forecasting to meet business targets. Strong customer relationships will be key, ensuring high quality service, on-site delivery and effective support to the site team. You’ll liaise with customers and third parties on variations, claims and wider commercial matters. You’ll place subcontract orders and source competitive quotes by keeping close to current market trends. Monitoring subcontractor performance against the programme will ensure work stays on track. You’ll ensure applications for payment and invoices are submitted in line with WIP and cash targets. You’ll maintain compliance with contractual requirements while monitoring internal expenditure and improving reporting efficiency. You’ll maximise value, minimise cost and operate the systems needed to manage the contract effectively. You’ll support Perfect Delivery, coach team members and ensure smooth financial closure of projects.
What you'll need to succeed
With 3+ years as a Quantity Surveyor in a main contracting setting, you’ll thrive here — especially if you’ve worked on 2 stage, education, leisure, healthcare or life science projects . You’ll have a B.Sc. or HND in Quantity Surveying (or an equivalent commercial qualification) and/or RICS membership, giving you the strong technical foundation this role demands. Your solid understanding of site record production, interim and final accounts, cost reporting, materials records and period cost reporting, along with experience using COINS, will ensure you can hit the ground running and add real value from day one.

What you'll get in return
The role offers a salary of upto £65K + package, hybrid working opportunity with excellent benefits and career development.
