The Chartered Building Surveyor Role

This is a hands-on Building Surveyor position within a small and established commercial consultancy. You’ll be joining a team with a strong pipeline of existing work, so there’s no expectation for you to arrive with a client following or immediately start generating fees. The priority is finding someone who can take responsibility for their own workload and deliver work to a high standard. A significant proportion of the work centres around dilapidations, acting predominantly for landlords as well as tenants, alongside contract administration, project management and refurbishment schemes. You’ll also have exposure to PPM surveys, measured surveys, drawings and other areas of commercial building surveying. The consultancy works nationally, so you’ll need to be comfortable travelling to client sites throughout the UK. This isn’t a role where you’ll necessarily spend several days every week on the road, but projects can be located anywhere from Scotland to the South of England and flexibility around travel is important. The team is predominantly office-based when not attending sites, with flexibility available where appropriate. If you’ve been out on site, for example, there’s no expectation to travel back into the office unnecessarily.
