Senior Quantity Surveyor

North London | £80,000 - £90,000 + £6,000 Car Allowance/Company Car + Excellent Benefits

A leading UK main contractor is looking to appoint an experienced Senior Quantity Surveyor to lead the commercial delivery of a £50m new build education project in North London. My client is one of the UK's most successful main contractors and can offer exposure to exciting projects, an excellent work-life balance, and long-term career prospects.

The project forms part of a long-term Department for Education (DfE) framework, offering the opportunity to join the scheme from pre-construction and take it through to successful completion and handover.

As the Lead QS on the project, you'll manage a commercial team of three and take full responsibility for the commercial performance of the project, working closely with the project delivery team and client throughout the process.

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.
