Freelance Quantity Surveyor

About The Role

At EKFB, we're shaping Infrastructure for a better tomorrow for everyone. Do you want to work in a dynamic, ever-evolving environment? EKFB might be the place for you.

You don’t have to be an engineer to work in engineering, so come on board and let’s do something exceptional together.

You will need to build strong working relationships with the client, and key colleagues both internally and externally. A key art of this role will be contract administration which includes data reporting and record keeping.

You will be responsible for subcontract account management and payment, dispute management and you must contribute to project performance discussions, providing commercial input to project strategy.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

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.
