Senior Quantity Surveyor – Capital & Asset Management

UK-wide | Permanent | Hybrid/Flexible
£85K - £100K plus 20% bonus

I’m currently recruiting for an experienced Senior Quantity Surveyor to join an established organisation operating within the infrastructure and built environment sector.

This is a great opportunity for a commercially astute Senior QS to take ownership of the commercial management of capital and lifecycle asset replacement projects, working across a varied portfolio and alongside senior project, technical and operational stakeholders.

The Role

You’ll be involved throughout the project lifecycle, from early-stage procurement and tendering through to delivery, commercial close-out and handover.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Providing commercial and contractual advice across a portfolio of projects
  • Preparing tender documentation and managing tender processes
  • Reviewing and analysing tenders, ensuring compliance and value for money
  • Managing valuations, payments, variations and expenditure against budget
  • Preparing and maintaining accurate cost reports, forecasts and commercial information
  • Supporting the procurement and delivery of capital and asset replacement works
  • Managing the commercial relationship with consultants, contractors and supply chain partners
  • Reviewing contract documentation and maintaining robust commercial records
  • Managing change control and contractual variations
  • Supporting projects through both pre-contract and post-contract stages
  • Negotiating variations, compensation events and final accounts
  • Identifying and managing commercial risks and opportunities
  • Supporting project handover and ensuring commercial matters are appropriately closed out
  • Working closely with senior stakeholders to ensure projects are delivered within agreed commercial parameters

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.
