Are you passionate about delivering excellent customer service while developing a rewarding professional career? We're looking for a Graduate Building Surveyor to join our Building Consultancy Division.
This is an exciting opportunity to begin your journey towards becoming a Chartered Surveyor with one of the industry's leading property and insurance specialists. You'll join our highly successful team of home-based surveyors, with occasional attendance at your local regional office. Working alongside senior members of the team, the role will focus on your development through a combination of structured learning and hands-on experience.
Our Building Consultancy Division provides a full range of surveying services to clients, including investigating and reporting on building defects, designing and procuring repairs, and managing repair projects for domestic and commercial properties. The projects we oversee range from tens of thousands to millions of pounds in value and often arise following insured events such as fires, flooding, escape of water incidents, and vehicle impacts.
Working alongside experienced surveyors and senior leaders, you'll receive structured training and professional development, helping you build the technical, commercial, and customer-facing skills needed to succeed in a varied and rewarding career. We'll support you through the RICS APC pathway, helping you achieve Chartered Surveyor status while developing the wider skills needed for a long-term career with Sedgwick.
You'll gain exposure to a wide range of surveying activities, regularly engaging with policyholders, loss adjusters, contractors, insurers, and other stakeholders. As many of our customers are dealing with challenging and often life-changing situations, you'll play an important role in providing expert guidance alongside exceptional customer service.
