Forvis Mazars in the UK spans 14 offices across the nation and has over 3,400 professionals, with 190 partners. We have a clear purpose and a shared commitment to shape a better future.
You'll join a collaborative and inclusive team where you're supported to grow your skills, explore new opportunities, and contribute from day one. You'll work with a diverse client base, develop meaningful connections, and gain experience that extends beyond your local team. Together, we grow, belong and impact.
About The Team
The Forvis Mazars Property team is an advisory team providing expert or specialist advice to our clients, both internal and external. The team comprises Chartered Surveyors / Valuers and Property, Plant and Machinery valuers and we are seeking an additional surveyor to supplement our team's services.
About The Role
This role is currently flexible and will depend on the skill set of the applicants. We are seeking surveyors with any of the following skill sets:
-
Building Surveying - if you are a building surveyor, whether newly qualified or with a few years industry experience, we welcome applications from such professionals to enable us to add to the team's broad range of skills. As a building surveyor, you will need to have an understanding of cost-based valuations, in particular Depreciated Replacement Cost (DRC) or Contractor's Method valuations, as well as a willingness to broaden your valuation knowledge to support our valuation surveyors in reviewing and / or performing valuations. Your building surveying experience should also include some of these areas: building insurance valuations, development appraisals/feasibility studies, capital allowances, and dilapidations.
-
Property (real estate) valuation surveying - if you are a newly qualified or have a few years industry experience as a property valuer, you will feel right at home in our team. Your role will be to review, critique, and challenge valuations performed by professional advisors and internal management for financial reporting purposes, as part of the firm's Audit function. You could be residential, commercial, or specialized (e.g., trading property), as we have a very wide range of property clients and you will have the opportunity to develop your valuation knowledge across a significant range of assets.

No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
- Plant and Equipment (Machinery) valuation surveyor - If you are newly qualified (RICS or ASA) in this specialist field, we welcome your application to join our team, to bolster the existing plant and equipment valuation surveyors. It would be useful to have a knowledge and experience in valuations of a broad range of P&M for financial reporting and insurance purposes, as this will be the main area of focus. We will also provide on-the-job training into property valuations to enable you to support the wider team, which will include real estate, where many of the principles will be aligned to your knowledge and experience.
The role that we have available is open to candidates who are setting out in their career and will provide you with opportunities to learn, develop, and grow with the team and firm. We ideally require you to be qualified (MRICS, ASA, or similar) but will consider candidates who are about to sit their final professional body exams/interviews.
