Rare Client-Side Opportunity | Privately Owned Property Investor & Developer
Are you a Building Surveyor looking to move client-side or join a business where you can genuinely influence a diverse property portfolio?
We're recruiting on behalf of a highly regarded, privately owned property investor and developer with an established portfolio of industrial, retail and office assets across the North West.
This is an excellent opportunity to join an experienced in-house Building Surveying team where you'll be involved in a broad range of professional and project work, giving you far greater variety than many traditional consultancy positions.
The Role
Working closely with the Director of Building Surveying, you'll take responsibility for a varied portfolio across Merseyside and the wider North West, supporting the business with both professional surveying duties and project delivery.

Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
