Reading, United Kingdom Allcott Associates LLP Full time

Opportunity

We are expanding our team in the Reading area We are looking for an experienced Building Surveyor to join our team and carry out Level 3 and Level 2 home surveys and other related works for residential clients in and around Reading. We are a well-established, independent and ambitious firm of Chartered Building Surveyors providing building surveys nationwide.


The role

Allcott Associates has an excellent reputation in the residential surveying market and focuses on providing industry-leading Level 3 building surveys and Level 2 homebuyer reports. It is a home-based role and the patch is tailored to your location, so it would suit someone based in or around Reading, Berkshire, or South Oxfordshire.


From Georgian and Victorian properties to new builds to Grade II listed cottages, the work is varied and interesting. We have an offering which sets us aside from our competitors so if you have a genuine interest in reducing customer confusion around pre-purchase property surveys we want to hear from you.


This is a great opportunity for someone looking for a role where they can have more control over their work and what they do. As an independent company, we have the flexibility to shape the job according to what you are looking for. If you want to get involved in growing the business and liaising with clients then we can facilitate that. If an excellent work–life balance is your priority, then the role is ideal – our surveyors often schedule surveys to allow them to do school drop-offs/avoid rush-hour etc.


The role is very flexible and entirely home-working, with no points or timesheets.


The person

The ideal candidate will be an RICS chartered building surveyor or an experienced AssocRICS surveyor, and be confident in carrying out residential building surveys. They must have an eye for detail and a thorough understanding of building defects, maintenance and repairs.


You will need to have experience of:

  • RICS residential building surveys
  • a wide range of structural and building defects
  • preparing and presenting comprehensive, accurate survey reports
  • providing clear, concise, justified conclusions
  • working independently and within a team structure
  • liaising with clients, both verbally and through written correspondence


A full UK driving licence is required.


What we offer

  • Salary of approx. £60–70K, depending on experience
  • A diverse role with excellent opportunities for career progression: partnership is a possibility for the right person
  • A supportive network of in-house professionals and admin staff
  • Flexible and generous packages to suit you. These typically include (but are not limited to):
  • health and life insurance
  • flexible working and working from home
  • 25+ days annual leave plus bank holidays
  • car allowance
  • payment of professional subscriptions and support with CPD
  • provision of all engineering and home office equipment
