Quantity Surveyor (Groundworks & Civils)
Are you a Quantity Surveyor currently working for a massive corporation where you feel like just a number? Are you ready for a genuine change where your work actually impacts the business? Do you thrive in an environment where you simply get things done?
We are a highly established, 3rd generation family business based in Northampton. We do not do corporate red tape. Here, every employee matters, every role is vital, and no two days are ever the same.
The Role
- Manage project budgets, estimating costs for materials and labour
- Negotiate subcontract agreements and ensure groundwork operations remain profitable and contractual compliant
- Your time will be split between our main Northampton office and sites across the surrounding counties
- You will take ownership of your projects from inception to final accounts with direct backing from the owners
