Senior Quantity Surveyor – Critical Facilities Management & Construction Role

Looking to work on high-profile facilities management and construction projects? This opportunity is ideal for an experienced Senior Quantity Surveyor.

About the Role

We are seeking a Senior Quantity Surveyor to join a leading organisation that delivers critical facilities management, property maintenance, and construction services across a major defence estate in Cambridgeshire.

This key commercial role involves supporting the delivery of construction and maintenance projects from initial pricing to final account. You’ll work closely with operational teams, clients, and supply chain partners to ensure strong commercial performance, effective cost control, and value for money.

If you’re looking for variety, autonomy, and career progression, this role offers the perfect opportunity.


Key Responsibilities

The Senior Quantity Surveyor will:

  • Lead commercial management of facilities management, property maintenance, and construction projects, from tender to final account.
  • Develop cost models, commercial reports, valuations, forecasts, and work proposals while maintaining strong financial control and performance.
  • Manage commercial risk, contract administration, variations, and change control across multiple projects.
  • Collaborate closely with operational teams, clients, and supply chain partners to enhance commercial performance and deliver value for money.
  • Support monthly reporting, stakeholder negotiations, and continuous improvement initiatives across the contract.

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.
