Looking for a Quantity Surveyor role where you can make a real impact?

We're recruiting for an exciting opportunity with an established and successful specialist contractor in Southampton.

This isn't just another Quantity Surveyor position. We're looking for a commercially minded professional who wants to take ownership, work closely with senior management and play an important role in the continued success of the business.

With a salary of up to £75,000 plus package,

this is an excellent opportunity for an experienced Quantity Surveyor looking for their next career move.

The Opportunity

Our client delivers a diverse range of specialist construction and installation projects, ranging from £5,000 to £3 million.

You'll take a leading role in managing the commercial performance of projects, working closely with the sales and delivery teams to ensure projects are accurately costed, effectively managed and commercially successful.

This is a varied, client-facing position offering genuine responsibility, autonomy and the opportunity to become a key member of an established business.

Working closely with the sales and operations teams to ensure successful project delivery.

Managing valuations, variations, applications for payment and final accounts.
