Senior Quantity Surveyor

Senior Quantity Surveyor | D&B Fit-Out | Central London | Hybrid working | Temp to Perm

I’m working with a rapidly growing London design and build contractor who are looking to strengthen their commercial team with the appointment of up to three Quantity Surveyors.

The London D&B division turnover  £45m–£50m, supported by a strong level of repeat business and an expanding portfolio of larger projects.

This is an opportunity for a commercially driven surveyor to take genuine ownership of fast-paced London projects, becoming involved during pre-construction and remaining close to delivery through regular site visits.

The Role

Commercial management of single-stage design and build fit-out projects

Taking projects from pre-construction and procurement through to final account

Reviewing tender information and identifying commercial, contractual and design risk

Procurement and management of subcontract packages

Valuations, applications for payment and subcontractor payments

Monthly CVRs, cashflow forecasting and commercial reporting

Managing variations, change control and final accounts

Maintaining regular site involvement throughout post-contract delivery

Potentially managing multiple projects depending on size and programme 

Projects

Commercial fit-out and refurbishment across Central London

Predominantly single-stage design and build

Core project values between £5m and £12m

Fast-paced programmes requiring proactive risk and cost management 

What they’re looking for

Quantity Surveyor or Senior Quantity Surveyor with main-contractor experience

Fit-out or design and build experience is advantageous but not essential

Traditional contracting, retail or industrial fit-out backgrounds will also be considered

Strong procurement, CVR, valuation, change-control and final-account experience

Capable of identifying commercial and contractual risk before it becomes an issue

Comfortable taking ownership without being closely supervised

Able to work at pace and manage multiple responsibilities or projects 

The Business

Established workplace design and build contractor

London division turning over approximately £45m–£50m

Around 70% repeat business

Increasingly securing projects valued between £5m and £12m

High-quality new headquarters in the City of London

Commercial structure: Head of Commercial, Commercial Managers and project-based surveyors

Typical working hours of 8:00am–5:00pm

One day working from home

Regular London site visits rather than permanent site-based working

Genuine scope to progress as the division and commercial team continue to grow
