Senior Quantity Surveyor – Prime & Super Prime Residential


On behalf of my client, a boutique consultancy specialising in the Prime and Super Prime residential market, I am seeking an experienced Senior Quantity Surveyor to join their team. This role offers the opportunity to work on prestigious, one-off properties for high-net-worth individuals, with project values ranging from £5 million to £50 million in some of London’s most exclusive areas.


The Role: My client is looking for a Senior Quantity Surveyor to take the lead in managing high-end residential projects, providing expert cost management, and contract administration services. A strong focus on pre-contract expertise is essential, from developing cost plans and advising on procurement strategies to managing tender processes and negotiations. You will see projects through from inception to completion, delivering exceptional results for discerning clients.


Key Responsibilities:

  • Strong pre-contract experience, including preparing cost plans, procurement advice, and managing tenders
  • Full cost management throughout the project lifecycle
  • Managing tendering processes, contract negotiations, and procurement strategies
  • Preparing cost estimates, forecasts, and contract documentation
  • Conducting valuations and managing variations
  • Liaising closely with architects, contractors, and clients to ensure smooth project delivery
  • Providing expert advice on contracts, cost plans, and financial risk management


The Ideal Candidate:

  • Proven experience in high-end residential projects, ideally within the Prime and Super Prime markets
  • Strong pre-contract and post-contract expertise, with excellent contract administration skills
  • Experience managing projects ranging from £5m to £50m
  • Comprehensive understanding of JCT contracts
  • Excellent stakeholder management and communication skills
  • Attention to detail and a passion for delivering projects to the highest standards


This is a fantastic opportunity to work on extraordinary projects, offering the chance to make a significant impact within a well-regarded consultancy. If you have a background in high-end residential and are looking for your next challenge, this could be the perfect role for you.


Please note that whilst the role listed is for a Senior QS, my client is also interested in speaking to someone at Quantity Surveyor level and also someone at Associate QS level.
