You will ideally bring:
- Three to five years’ experience as a Quantity Surveyor
- Experience working within a contractor environment
- A degree in Quantity Surveying, Construction Management or a related discipline
- Strong post-contract commercial management experience
- Experience managing variations, valuations and final accounts
- The ability to manage several live projects simultaneously
- Strong commercial awareness and negotiation skills

Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
Knowledge of NEC, JCT or FIDIC contracts, along with experience using CostX, Bluebeam, Microsoft Excel or similar commercial software, would also be advantageous. Membership of RICS or an equivalent professional body is desirable but not essential.
Why join?
This is an exciting opportunity to join a growing fit-out and construction business where you can take genuine ownership of your projects and make a visible commercial contribution.
You will benefit from a flexible hybrid structure across the office, project sites and home, with regular site visits in Dublin. You will work closely with an experienced delivery team and have the opportunity to progress towards a Senior Quantity Surveyor or broader commercial leadership position as the business grows.
A salary of £50,000–£60,000 is available, depending on experience.
If you are a commercially minded Quantity Surveyor looking for greater ownership, varied projects and a clear opportunity to progress, we would love to hear from you.
