Quantity Surveyor
Division: Lightning Protection (LPI)
Location: Commutable to Eagle Street, Glasgow (G4 9XA) but can be based in the North West/Manchester or Nottingham
Join PTSG, a market leader in vital safety systems. We're looking for a Quantity Surveyor to commercially manage our Lightning Protection projects. If you enjoy a fast-paced environment and have good contract knowledge including JCT, NEC, and bespoke contracts—this is your next step.
About the Role
You'll manage all commercial elements post-tender, from the start of a project right through to the final payment:
- Contract Focus: Handle all communication and compliance for JCT/NEC and other contracts.
- Risk Management: Work with Project Managers to spot and reduce financial and contractual risks.
- Submit payment applications, manage variations, and track costs.
- Reporting: Produce clear weekly and monthly financial reports (CVR) for management.
What You Need
We care about your core QS skills and attitude, if you haven't worked in lightning protection before we can provide training in the sector specifics.
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.
