Winsearch is proud to partner with an established and respected specialist contractor within the cladding sector, who are looking to appoint a Quantity Surveyor to join their commercial team.

This is an excellent opportunity for a commercially capable QS who wants responsibility, autonomy, and close involvement with senior leadership. The role will suit someone who is confident managing their own workload, comfortable working across multiple live projects, and able to take ownership of commercial processes from the office, with site travel when required.

The business specialises in cladding projects and is looking for someone who understands the pace, detail, and commercial demands of specialist construction.

The Role

As a Quantity Surveyor, you will be responsible for managing commercial duties across live cladding projects, working closely with the senior leadership team and supporting the successful commercial delivery of projects.

You will be involved in invoice management, project cost control, commercial reporting, contract administration, and liaison with internal teams, clients, and site teams.

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.
