An established specialist contractor is looking to appoint a Quantity Surveyor to support the commercial management of projects across its growing portfolio.

This is an opportunity for a commercially capable QS with experience working for a specialist subcontractor to take responsibility for projects from interim valuations through to final account.

The Role

You will work closely with the Commercial Manager and operational teams, taking responsibility for the day-to-day commercial management of allocated projects.

Responsibilities will include:

Preparing monthly valuations and applications for payment

Assessing, pricing and submitting variations

Managing change control and maintaining supporting commercial records

Preparing and managing subcontract orders

Assessing subcontractor applications and final accounts

Producing cost reports, cash-flow forecasts and costs-to-complete

Monitoring project margins and identifying commercial risk

Remeasuring works and identifying changes in scope

Managing commercial correspondence and contractual notices

Supporting project final accounts

The Candidate

You should have previous Quantity Surveying experience within a specialist subcontracting business.

Experience within façades, cladding, curtain walling, glazing or building envelope would be advantageous, but candidates from other specialist subcontracting sectors will also be considered.

You will need practical experience of valuations, variations, cost management and final accounts, together with working knowledge of JCT and/or NEC subcontract environments.

A relevant higher-education Quantity Surveying qualification or equivalent is essential.

Working Arrangement

The expected working pattern is approximately two days per week in Southam, two days on a West London project and one day working from home.

Candidates therefore need to be comfortable travelling regularly between both locations.
