About the role
As a Junior Quantity Surveyor, you'll play a key role in supporting the commercial delivery of projects across the region. You'll work closely with project and commercial teams to ensure projects are delivered efficiently, commercially, and in line with client expectations.
This is a hybrid role with travel to project sites typically required 2–3 days per week, with the remainder of your time spent working remotely. Projects are currently located across North Wales, Gloucester, Manchester, and Hampshire, so candidates should be comfortable travelling throughout these areas as required. Given the geographic spread of projects, a location within the West Midlands (e.g. Birmingham, Solihull, Coventry, or the Warwick/Leamington Spa area) would provide particularly convenient access.
