Competitive Salary
- Are you a Senior Quantity Surveyor looking for a role where your expertise directly shapes project outcomes?
- Do you want the flexibility to manage multiple projects while working closely with directors and decision-makers?
- Are you ready to join a specialist construction organisation where your impact is visible, valued, and influential?
The Company:
ER Recruitment are working with our client, an independent project delivery company with a strong reputation for precision, technical expertise, and results-focused execution. Unlike large contractors, the organisation operates with a lean structure, giving senior team members real influence over commercial strategy, decision-making, and project outcomes. This is a highly visible role where experience, judgement, and leadership directly contribute to the success of challenging, high-profile projects.
Role & Responsibilities of the Senior Quantity Surveyor:
- Take full ownership of commercial management across assigned projects, providing guidance on cost control, procurement, and contract strategy.
- Prepare, submit, and negotiate interim and final accounts with clients and subcontractors, ensuring timely and accurate payment.
- Review and advise on contract documentation, commercial risk, and variation management.
- Support project teams in supplier selection, tender analysis, and subcontractor management, ensuring optimal value and compliance.
- Monitor project budgets, cash flow, and reporting systems, recommending process improvements where needed.
- Attend project meetings and liaise directly with directors, clients, and key stakeholders to provide strategic commercial advice.
- Mentor junior QS staff, sharing expertise and ensuring standards are consistently applied across projects.
- Travel to project sites as required, maintaining oversight of project delivery and financial performance.
About You as the Senior Quantity Surveyor:
- Extensive experience as a Quantity Surveyor within the construction sector, ideally with a mix of high-value or complex projects.
- Strong commercial judgement, negotiation skills, and the ability to work independently with minimal oversight.
- Flexible and adaptable to working across multiple sites, with strong organisational skills.
- Confident interfacing with directors, clients, and supply chain to drive results.
- Professional, proactive, and motivated by ownership and responsibility rather than large organisational structure.
